You want try out camping? Head to Chiling. Suitable for beginners with less than 1 minute trekking. To the waterfall another 45 minutes to 1.5 hours but beware of flash flood especially river crossing number 5 and 6.

The leeches were never on the road. After the tar road, where the high bushes before the descent up, the leeches are all there. 99% normal leech and 1% tiger leech. Tiger leeches often seen within Perak mountains like Gunung Liang, Gunung Inas and Gunung Bubu, Ulu Kenas.

QUOTE(Celia Lim @ Nov 4 2014, 11:38 PM)  is it common at Chenuang? I heard that it is common at Mount KK.. If you are referring to Chenuang, hardly have if you use the Sungai Congkak route. If you used the old way via Ampang, high chances you will encounter them plus it is a distance to trek. Possible encounter wild cats too.

QUOTE(Celia Lim @ Nov 8 2014, 09:47 AM) I'm entering through Congkak recreational park, is that the Sg Congkak route?  Yes. The trailhead is somewhere near a building behind. Trek about 1-3 minutes the trailhead on your right. Cross a few small streams. Lots of bamboos and leeches. The confusion part when you are near to the peak where u need to make a U loop. Head straight will reach Batu Hampar (if I am not mistaken - been a while since I last trek there since 2011). The beirut still standing strong there. Last time, there are metal handle along the way towards the peak but due to overgrown trees, some trekkers chop off the metal railing and no longer can be use. Beirut should be mark with an Adidas logo and clear view of Klang Gate dam can be seen.

Didn't finish Chenuang in the end, there were massive undergrowth towards the end which made it almost impossible to pass through without parangs/tools. But will definitely try again tho! >:) My friend mentioned Gunung Datuk, and I saw pics of it that seemed very fun! Anyone been there?

You could use the GPS to lead you there. You will need to register yourself and pay RM5 for entry fees. Nice view, approximate 2 hours up 1.5 hours down for beginners. But somehow someone got lost at Datuk recently. http://www.thestar.com.my/News/Nation/2014...ng-Gunung-Dato/Luckily nothing goes wrong to her. http://www.sinarharian.com.my/edisi/melaka...-datuk-1.331745Back to Chenuang, it is not a common trekking ground as most people are unaware of it. People hike the well known Nuang either via Pangsoon or Janda Baik. It is best for you to engage a guide to Chenuang if you are first time there. Just pay a minimal fee and make the arrangement with the Selangor Forestry Department.

Wow, guess it isn't really recommended to go for solo hiking unless one's very experienced  The entrance is through Hutan Lipur Gunung Datuk?

Yeah located at Rembau area. The confusion part located at two area. One which is located about 15-25 minutes into the hike from the starting point, the other is when near to the peak where there is a junction head to nearby mountain called Gunung Rembau. I would prefer anyone to go in a group just in case you are not familiar of getting lost in the forest.

I know there is a group heading to Korbu-Gayong end of December. Since it is end of the year, hardly people choose to camp due to raining season. I know Yellow and Swettenham already gone case. Even Yong Belar via Blue Valley also tapau habis.
