Going to Gunung Datuk!

Finally, I will be going to Gunung Datuk, and its confirmed!

Gunung Datuk is located at Negri Sembilan in West Malaysia. According to what I know, the trek up will take less than half a day, but the view at the top is wonderful!

Here is what you get from the BOAC website

At 900m, Gunung Datuk is considered a short mountain and the hike up to the summit takes about 2-3 hours. The summit offers a splendid full 360 degree unobstructed panorama view of the entire state – you can even see the Straits of Melaka on a good day. To reach the summit, hikers need to climb up a ladder section near the top. Once atop, the summit feels windy as it is basically an exposed rocky outcrop and therefore can get a bit tricky to walk around on if there is a big group on top. This is a short interesting trek which can be completed by any reasonably fit hiker.

My journey there in December will take two days, leaving in the morning, and camping only one night there, rising early in the morning to see another magnificent sunrise from another mountain! I’m so looking forward to that!
