Batu Bukit Chondong - short and sweet hike

It's been a while I have not updated my blog. Well, I picked up hiking as hobby in the past one year and I decided to share some of the trails here.

Batu Bukit Chondong, probably one of the shortest hiking trail in Klang Valley with a breathtaking view.

It starts with an uphill climb following a chain link fence on the left. You will ducked your way through a dense bamboo grove. I love the bamboo as it blocks the sun, making a shady walk.

It's all the way uphill after the bamboo grove until you confronted by a rock wall, where the peak is right after it.

The most challenging part of the hike is to scramble over tree roots and rope to hoist yourself across big rocks to reach the peak. Hard work paid off when you see the view from the peak. There are a few spots for photography at the peak.

It's takes about 20 minutes to reach the peak and another 20 minutes downhill.

Here are some photos of the trail.

The peak is rocky, and you have to do a bit of climbing to move around.
