We begun by climbing a steep hill. Trail shoes were needed for the steep terrain, and our Visitors from Taiping were saying boots with ankle protection will be just good enough, so having forgotten my running shoes and clad with our my miscosin, I took the plunge or is it the flight? Up, up and away.

A short 15 minutes climb and an easy trek of 500 meters takes us to a quiet and secluded jungle stream. In the hot day climate, high temperatures and oppressive humidity leave the impression that it would be best to stop but knowing Kool Dog, it would still be quite a long way to plod on.

When trekking through dense jungle with little exposure to direct sunlight, we were enjoying the run at our own pace and of course the fast runners are no-where to be seen.

It was a great trail to the peak with breath-taking view of Kuala Lumpur; we slowed down at that part together with our Taiping guests to take in the view.

And next was just a short to the trail down, very steep and very dark and most of us were virtually on our hands and knees. It the most challenging part of the overall trail.

We were very well greeted at the exit, this is the moment that all of us are waiting for … Beer again!

We end the day with delightful dinner with signature dishes by respective chef’s best dish.
