Saga Hill Trial

Reviewed By csChai - Malaysia, null

There are a few trails to hike up Bukit Saga from Taman Saga. Trail A and C are the popular trails taken by hikers. Trail B is now closed due to construction works. The trails up this hill are of moderate difficulty and they are well-marked and well-trodden. If you are new to this hill, just follow the crowd on any weekend. There is an open space at the top of Bukit Saga with a big noticeboard, rest huts, hammocks and a makeshift cooking area. The hilltop area is well maintained and clean. Alternatively, we can hike to Bukit Saga from the neighbouring hill, Bukit Putih, which is more commonly called Bukit Ah Pek. Hike up one of the Bukit Ah Pek trails till we reach the Bukit Ah Pek hilltop (Station 6). From there, proceed to Bukit Saga. This trail is much longer than the Saga A and C trails. For the more adventurous (and stronger) hikers, we can hike to the Bukit Saga waterfall. One of the clearer and easier trails to the waterfall is from Station 5 along the Bukit Ah Pek trail. Please take note that the last part of the trail just before reaching the waterfall is quite steep and slippery due to soil erosion. Happy Hiking!

A must do activity when around Kuala Lumpur. The sumatran rhino which is almost extinct can be seen here. A great opportunity to watch the tiger doing its water antics. Place is a bit pricy for internationals but reasonable for locals tariff
