Hi, Has anybody gone through the full length of the Tabur East trail? How about reaching this distant outcrop pictured here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/explorea/4995...57600217822078/Any trails to it? Through the jungle or on Tabur East trail is okay with me. Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I think we should enjoy both Tabur West and East as long as we can because the MRR3 is going to shoot very near these two beautiful set of hills sometime in the future. I have been noticing that our latest maps of KL have been showing the route of MRR3 being planned to go very near the bottom of these hills.
It is possible that access to these hills might be made more difficult once the highway is being built. The proposed route of the highway will cut just south of these hills, and run alongside the hills. It will also cut very near the car park that we always park when we climb Tabur West.
Once the highway is up and running, it won't be as quiet as it is now. I know this because I live 300m from MRR2 and it is noisy day and night.
Does anybody have additional information about MRR3?
A few years ago, Tabur was supposed to be turned into some kind of state park to protect the hills, flora and fauna. It seems that that movement has died off. So our two hills do not seem to have much protection from development.
Better enjoy them while you can, especially those of you so lucky to live near them.

Don't forget to wear gloves. The last time I was there, there were ants on the ropes. They bit me.
Anyway, have fun!
