27th September 2014, we are going to Saga Hill again. This is our second visit in less than two months time. We are joining the monthly hiking event organized by The North Face Malaysia. The assembly point is at the car park area nearby the Saga entrance. The hike started at 715am after the warm up session. Our hiking trail of the day. Ascending (Red arrow) via trail C and descending (Blue arrow) via trail A. It was a 2 hours leisure hike and the destination is Saga Hill rest point. The total distance covered is around 5km. The ascending is via trail C and descending via trail A. We took an hour to reach the rest point. After 15 minutes of rest, we started to descend. There are so many staircases in trail C compared to trail A. Some other group members having a quick rest while waiting for other participants to reach. The heaven route! Thanks to the locals for keeping the area clean and kept improving the facilities. Some simple gym facility. Thank...

Next we were exploring a small hut beside a man-made pond by walking down from the station and that took us another 15 minutes for single way. The hut was big, untouched and we were having fun playing with some flying-twisting plants. The small hut. Man-made po...
