ah pak shan is not high...it doesn't require climbing...but the route can be long and stamina-consuming...it's a good workout place for training stamina... u can go anytime as there're lotsa trees there that block most of the sunlight. it has 6 levels, level 1 to 3 are more challenging where the ascent is steep. From level 4 to 6 is slight easy as the route is becoming not that steep and it's best to do trail running there. Nearby level 5, there's a refreshing mini waterfall, around 30 mins walking distance away. If u go beyond level 6, u will end up a small hill peak called Saga hill. i bumped into a white color wildboar few days back while on my way to Saga hill. First time encountered wild animal during hiking, it did scare me and luckily it didnt charge at me

erm...if we wan to start to hike at 7am, i think we should gather up early. if my memory serves me right, it's still a long way to go after the first toll, provided we're not familiar with the route.
after Plaza Phoenix, you'll find a Petronas Station on your left hand side. Perhaps we meet up there at 6am? then you all need not to turn in Leisure Mall. wat u all think?

QUOTE(tschin1981 @ Jun 27 2008, 09:51 AM) I have never been to Nuang, but from what I gather the trail shud be obvious, so very rare chance of getting lost. Some even say that the trek is easier than melawati hill...dunno how true is it. Can any1 advise me how to get to phoenix plaza. i'm coming from MRR2, which exit shud i take? do you know how to go to Leisure Mall? if u do and you're on the main road towards to Kajang, leisure mall should be on your left hand side... u just need to go straight and you'll see Plaza Phoenix on your right hand side (Green color building) go straight about 200m after Plaza Phoenix, you should be able to see a Petronas station on your left hand side, we can meet up there. Hope you're clear with my direction guide
