Guys, need some advice.

Planning to go to Nuang twice (this month and next month) to test my gears before going to mountain with 3800+m asl.

Is there any place(mountain) I can go without spending more than 1 night beside Nuang ?

Thanks

What's the height you are looking at? Most mountain tops 1 night camping unless you are targeting the G7.

LOL, I have only done sea fishing once. It's very memorable. But it was a ship own by my uncle, he sold it now due to difficulties in maintaining it. I can get you contacts if you still need.

I have done it in the seas of Sabah, went off the coast to towards Pulau Tiga (Survival?) and fish from day time throughout mid night. We got more than 30kg of catch for that trip alone.

Just drive all the way to Mersing and engage a local guide for fishing. More likely it will be a 3 days 2 nights thingy. You need more information, I can try to ask my friends who are into such activities.

I am not sure about the price but if you are to go fishing, you need not stay in a good hotel as you will be sleeping in the boat.

If your dad is into squid fishing, I heard some head to Port Klang to do so during the night.

Kerinci and Rinjani in Indonesia. Different gear after all especially in terms of the climate.

Which state you are looking at to do the camp?

Try those mountains within the Cameron Highland range. Should be good for you since it will take less than 4 hours of hike and you are able to camp there.

They are: -
Gunung Yellow - approximate 3-4 hours, campsite on the peak, got water source about 3-5 minutes hike down from the campsite on your right. Could drop by to Gunung Pass at one of the junction. Less than 2 minutes, no view point.

Gunung Suku - approximate 2-3 hours, two campsites on the peak. False peak on the right, actual peak on the left. Water source will be the ravine before the summit climb as it is a M type of mountain.

You might want to consider: -

Bukit Kutu @ KKB - 4-5 hours hike from Sungai Pertak. First two rivers have bridge, once you cross the third river, stay left and the trail will lead you up. There are water source in the peak but I wouldn't be sure whether it is still clean since people kept litter around the peak in the past.

Gunung Ulu Semangkok @ Fraser - 3 hours hike from GAP Rest house. No water source. Windy during the night.

Pine Tree Trail & Twin Peak @ Fraser - Indication of last water point at KM 3-3.9 marker. Most people camp there but you could opt to camp at either peak.

Gunung Bunga Buah @ Genting - Cannot remember about my hike there but should be around 4 hours hike with most people camp near to the beirut. Able to see Klang Gate Dam and Genting Highlands if weather is clear. Will ask about the water source if keen.

Wow, big thanks for the list.

I will do some little research and definitely will visit those places after Nuang.
But those places has it's own campsite or we need to open it on my own ?

Already have their own campsite. Better you hike with someone who are familiar with the track unless you have self confident. Feel free to ask and I will revert.
