Exploring Gunung Nuang via Janda Baik

March, 30 2013

Knowing that using this trail to Gunung Nuang summit would able to skip the “Never Ending Road”. We decided explore it as none of our members of this hike has hiked this trail before. First 30 minutes walked through the vegetable farm, next 30 minutes with bamboo tree trail all the way till reaching the waterfall. After crossing the river you got to step all the way up up up....  continuous for almost two hours until we saw a big rock, I knew we are almost there.  With another 30 minutes we reached the summit of Gunung Nuang.

Personally I feel that although this trail is shorter distance but it is not as easy hike as Hulu Langat trail.

      Entering any Reserve Forest requires permits to enter.

    Pengalaman yang sangat menarik. Trek yang tidak terlalu sukar. Air terjeun yang sgt cantik. Perjalanan dalam group yang seramai 58 orang dgn paste yang berlainan sbb peringkat umur ahli group kami yang pelbagai dari umur 13 tahun hingga 70 tahun dan sebahagian besar adalah pesakit yang mengidap pelbagai penyakit terutama kencing manis, gout, jantung, darah tinggi, kanser malah ada yg masih dlm rawatan. Hiking adalah satu terapi yang sgt baik untuk kami semua. Alhamdulillah daripada 58 orang lebih separuh berjaya sampai ke puncak. Yang kurang bertenaga hanya bersantaian di kawasan air terjun yang cantik itu.
