Last month just managed to spend time for hiking at Negeri Sembilan. Gunung Datuk is 2900ft above sea level, making it slightly higher than nearby Gunung Angsi which is around 22km away. Easy accessible by driving own vehicle.
Climbing Gunung Datuk is well worth the effort. It is quite a strenuous physical effort.
It took around 2.5 hours to reach the summit.
At the summit you can rest on the flat boulders, enjoy the magnificent views and feel the cooling breeze. You are supposed to be able to see the Straits of Malacca.
There are enormous trees in the lower parts of the mountain, including one that appears to have been partly sawn through. But the tree survived and grew back, covering over the sawn section. It's an interesting climb with lots of sights to occupy the eye, including trees with giant roots. The trail is very clear and easy to follow.
You will be paid off with the breezing airs and views when reach the top. Worth return visit someday.

Excellent for newbies - view is good, with lo
Having said that, unless you severely have problems walking up stairs, this mountain is doable. A normal time is around 2-4 hours to the peak. going down should be half. view on top is worth the trouble.

Hiking at Gunung Datuk in Seremban, Malaysia.
Two months in Seremban 2
While staying in a neighborhood called Seremban, I wanted to go hiking and asked a local friend for recommendations. This place, Gunung Datuk, was recommended.
The forest is dense and cool, making it a great place for hiking.
The round-trip hiking time takes about 2 to 3 hours.
It takes about 40 minutes to get from Seremban 2 to Gunung Datuk by Grab.
Located within the Gunung Datuk Forest Reserve near the village of Rembau in Negeri Sembilan, Gunung Datuk stands at a modest height of 683m but offers expansive views of the surrounding area.
