Hiking Bukit Tabur, Melawati

Bukit Tabur, one of the finest lime stone hill for hikers in the Klang Valley, very nice place indeed. Unpredictable terrain, low water particles, good for photography with a feel of danger. Anyways, never get there after rain to avoid slippery rocks, it can be really dangerous =0

Started hiking at 6.45am, didn't imagine that there will be a group earlier than us, having a picnic there.
Sun has not risen, indicating good news that we're on par with time.

The terrain is slightly rocky, involving alot of climbing of steep rocks, unlike Gasing Hill, where you can walk comforably on a man made path.
1 quater through, is still early =)

Rocky path, make your feet hurts

Sun is up
Klang Gates Dam You get 2 types of view up there, one side revealing the view of skyscrapers and city, the other side opening the eyes to the breathtaking view of Klang Gates surrounded by mountains.
High land plantsI took around 1 hour to reach the peak, and approximately 45 minutes to get back to civilization. Timing will definitely vary according to individual's capability. To boost energy, have a hearty dim sum breakfast with your hiking mates, and take a good afternoon nap after a warm nice shower. (: Credits to Johan's camera, nice picture yea.
Always remember, safety first, play safe, hike safe =D
