Great challenge hike - Teluk Bahang to Penang Hill and Return Trip


These 5 persons did a great challenge on 29th Aug 2009, where they start from Teluk Bahang Forest reserve, hike up to Western Hill tar road via Laksamana hill and make a return trip back to the forest reserve within the same day. Total jungle track distances covered = 13.2km.

Break into 2 groups on the up tracking , 1 st group touch down the tar road within 3.5hours while 2nd group reach 0.5 hours later.

On the way down, 1st group make a remarkable challenge with a time 2 hours 25mins while the 2nd group casually hike down 2.0 hours later.

Overall, it is really a very tough journey and strains all your energy, equivalent of running a half marathon distance.
