There is two camp site as i know ..

Camp Lolo and Camp pacat ..
Camp lolo near water source (cold stream).. about 5~6km from the Pangsoon ranger station (gunung nuang main entrance)
Camp pacat open space with no water source .. around 7.5km .. altitude 1000m from sea level ..

That look better. At least have a place to rest and continue next day for the not so fit people.

I still unable to find a group that are moderate and for beginner to hike and camp. Very much like to join but worried my fitness not up to those extreme group. 

1) Hike up to the peak for average person is 6hours, down will be less than 6hours. A light weight backpack can stuff in some food and drinks  (I know some one can hike up and down that less than 4hrs ..      )

2)I think Ace Hardware those energizer headlight is good enough .. if not mistaken was around RM40 ++

3)No need , the path to the peak is very obvious .. plus there's alot of the sign board put up as well.

4)Broga hill and Gunung Tok Wan the terrain is good enough for normal running shoe but in Nuang you need a pair of grippy shoe and hiking pole just incase a day before encounter heavy rain and become muddy.

I think if you take 6 hours to go up, you are going to take more time than that come down

Let me intro you to a fb group on hiking and camping, hope you find some same interest companion to go with ..

Malaysia Hiking & Camping

Thanks. I have join that group sometime.

I see many activity they post. Every weekend got hiking.  But in the event, doesn't look many. Where they join the event?

When I see those gunung, gunung hiking aday, I chicken out.   I worried not that fit to join and slow them down.

Just tell them you are newbie, do they accept newbie come along or else open a tread asking for accompany for newbie or first time, don't be shy ..  im sure there's a lot of people would like to help you out .. 

just ask, no harm asking..

Bila ada hilang, boleh aku join?
biginner sini, sila tunjuk ajar

Another great place to find hiking activities is using meetup, you can give it a try. I'm too recently just started, and most of the hikers are very friendly, thus there is no need to chicken out, all you need is stepping out your first step. Fitness can be trained, choose those easy hike to evaluate how well you do first.

Usually if those hiking require experienced hiker, it will be mentioned, otherwise beginner should be doing just fine.

Hi all,

I am considering to start an eCommerce site particularly to sell outdoor gears related items in Malaysia. Some examples are like REI.com and Backcountry.

Hence, I would like to get your view on such idea and your thoughts on such on the following:

• What are your current pain-points when it comes to shopping on such outdoor gears around in KL for your adventures in and out of the country?
  
• Would you prefer to shop online for such items considering the fact that they are genuine, has warranty and cheaper than offline stores?
  
• What are your thoughts on the current offline/brick-and-mortar outdoor stores around in KL?
  

Thank you for your feedback!

1. The pain: i have to go from shop to shop just to get a few items because one shop does not sell all that i need, some is just crazily overpriced.

2. YES, PLEASE.

3. I think they are great as they kinda specialise in a few stuff and they can share their customer or personal experience with you when you are shopping. Other than that, my hands kinda gatal wanna hold the product before buying 
I would definitely love to buy from a reputable online shop from the comfort of my home, and if it is really, REALLY like Rei, I would be super glad!

Huh, get from REI? Not expensive meh?

Most of my gear get from REI.    I shop REI since 16yrs ago. Either online or go to their shop.

Prefer shop at store. Shopping online for certain thing which have detail information.

The pain is not much choice here. But understand it since the market here not big.

1. Driving and parking. And difficulty in comparing items from shop to shop, some are very far away from each other.
2. Yes please, but will only be convinced if photo/video of the item taken is very detailed. Sometimes what we see isn't what we get 
3. The best thing is we can check and 'feel' the items before purchasing them. Can test them on and see whether they look nice or are they comfortable. But the bad thing is shops usually have limited selection, and not one outlet has all.

There are actually quite a lot of big shop in kl for outdoor gear. But of course la, cannot compare to 1st world. We got to understand MY is small market.

Outdoor gear here range have improve a lot compare many yrs ago. We now afford to get expensive brand. But I hope more local gear improve and quality. Local gear are more understand our jungle situation.
