It was so different from the hustle and bustle of the city; the air was so clean and fresh.

Conquering Gunung Baling, Kedah

I am proud of each of us who made it to the top! Gunung Baling conquered, after climbing up the 546 meters above sea level limestone outcrop. It's definitely a rewarding climb with the breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views from the mountain top! Here are some tips to prepare yourself for the hike: 1. Footwear: Sturdy and comfortable hiking shoes with excellent traction. 2. Clothing: Wear lightweight, moisture-wicking clothing suitable for tropical climates. Consider long sleeves and pants to protect against scratches and insects. 3. Backpack: A well-fitted backpack to carry essentials like water, snacks, first aid kit, and extra clothing. 4. Water and Hydration System: Carry enough water to stay hydrated during the climb. Consider a hydration system or reusable water bottle. 5. Sun Protection: Apply sunscreen, wear a hat, and bring sunglasses to protect against the sun’s rays. 6. Insect Repellent: Guard against insects, especially in the forested sections of the trail. 7. Headlamp/Flashlight: Essential for low-light conditions, especially if you plan to start early or return late. 8. Camera: Capture the stunning views and memorable moments along the way. 9. First Aid Kit: Basic medical supplies for minor injuries, blisters, or other emergencies. 10.

An Enchanting Exploration of Gua Sireh

#familytrips2024 🦇 Gua Sireh, located in the tranquil town of Kampung Padang Cik Mas, Mukim Pulai, is a popular destination for both locals and visitors from abroad. We started our exploration of Gua Sireh with a gentle warm-up, preparing ourselves for the enchanting journey that awaited. Climbing a staircase to the cave’s opening heightened our anticipation, and the distinct scent of bat guano in the air added an authentic touch to the natural ambiance. My awe deepened the moment I saw a massive stalagmite in the shape of sirih junjung (a stack of betel nut leaf using in Malay’s wedding ceremony) at the entrance, a breathtaking introduction to the wonders concealed within the cave. Continuing our path, I marveled at the diverse limestone formations, like lion’s head, ear hole, broken boat and many more, each unveiling a new facet of nature’s artistry. The most interesting one is at the Gong Gallery, where you can really hit a huge limestone to produce gong-like noises. Open on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Public holidays from 10am to 5.30pm #malaysiatrip #hiddengems #weekendgetaways #freehotelstay
