Broga Hills

Share
Last Tuesday was public holiday so we (me n my housemates) decided to climb up the Broga Hills in Semenyih, Selangor. BROGA!!!

Lets share what Broga is about. Broga is a small town that sits on the border of Selangor and Negeri Sembilan in Malaysia. It is situated 50 kilometres (31 miles) from Kuala Lumpur and approximately 33 kilometres (21 miles) from Seremban, the capital of Negri Sembilan.

Broga takes its name from the River Broga which runs through the area. The name Broga is believed to be derived from Buragas, a mythical beast that lives in the forest.

The majority of those residing in Broga town are the Chinese. There is also a significant Orang Asli population whose village is located just outside Broga.

Broga is surrounded by the lush green hills of a tropical rainforest and sits on the edge of the Titiwangsa Range.

Dowload the Route HERE. Thanks to GOOGLE MAPS ;)


We departed from Shah Alam (Sec 13) at 4.30am and arrived at 6am Broga Hills. We climbed up and it takes about 40minutes to reach the 1st peak.


6.45am


Kinda suprised-lah.. cos i didn't expect this hills will be very difficult to climb. during that time there was already a lot of people... lagi susah mau naik woooo....


friends



on the way to peak 2


peak 1 view and its surrounding


fantasy feeling isn't it?


Peak 3 on the top


We didn't manage to get into the peak 3 cos too many people and too crowded... haiiizz...


so we decided to turun-lah. and we didnt manage to watch the sunrise cos too cloudy, i guess the sun to shy to come out that day.






C&C are most welcome.... ;)
