The starting point Last weekend 26/Jan/19 we planned to hike to Singkug Hill, Kpg Bayayat. On Saturday morning, the rain doesn't seem to stop. We went, then after decide to hike or not hike. Its took us one hour ++ drive to Bayayat Village, the rain still pouring eventho we reached the village, had our breakfast, wait for awhile the rain still pouring looking at each other face. Consult with the local, we said OK we just proceed with the hike.  The registration area is at kindergarten. Our package all is inclusive breakfast, lunch, certificate and guide fee cost us RM31 .

Backdated entry Hi readers! Normally we went for hike around KK in small group, 5 pax the most. I've planned to hike Murug-Turug since last year (2018).

Murug-Turug offer three hike package. i. Trail A - 4KM (RM10) ii. Trail B - 5KM (RM15) iii.

Where to? Nuluh Lapai We always hike in the morning, over the weekend. We do not have any intention to catch-up with the sunrise or sunset in the evening. We just want to sweat ourselves and enjoy the nature early morning. How to get there? Nowadays you easily get anywhere in the world using very useful apps, just by pointing your finger on your smartphone. For the first timer, to those using waze, you may search for Gayang Seafood Restaurant. Nuluh Lapai hill right opposite the Gayang. Easy peasy right. ;) How was the difficulty level? Good for beginner, but just don't underestimate. Not to demotivate you, it was a good workout tho. For a new timer, you don't need a guide to hike but with a companion will be good. There is two access to climb the hill, you won't get lost easily as long you stay on the trail. It always breathtaking whenever you hike in the morning, if the weather permit Mount Kinabalu may greet you from far.

As you can see, I've been stop writing since 2016. The excuses was who write now? People will go to Insta or FB to find the information they needed. I find that was just a lame excuses for not writing anymore like myself. & since I transferred to KK, I know KK have a lot of hill to explore. Me, "the amateur hiker". LoL. The weekend is the opportunity for me to explore the hills more. So I've been googling all the hill in KK, the things is people do not blog anymore about their activity. So here I am decided to start blog about my Hiking activities, it just for easy reference for new beginner hiker to take interest to hike. Hope I can keep it up tho, just bear with me whoever out there who will come across to my not so informative blog. The view is always outstanding whenever you uphill I will share more about my experience hiking activities in KK. p/s All the photos is taken by me, give me some credit please... just don't simply downloaded and ow...
