AN EVENING AT BUKIT BROGA, SEMENYIH

After conquering Bukit Tabur in the afternoon and after having our late lunch at Tmn Melati, we were thinking of conquering Bukit Broga. On the way to Semenyih, it rained very heavily. so, we cancelled the plan. However, the weather became clear just before the Semenyih exit, so we decided to proceed. It's already 5.30pm.

Bukit Broga is situated at Semenyih. If you from Kajang Silk highway, just follow Semenyih signboard and after that just follow Broga direction. Just a few hundreds meter from Nottingham University (Malaysia Campus) you can see a palm tree car park on your left. During normal time they will charge you RM2 to park your car there.

We were lucky...no parking charge

The hiking started at the palm oil plantation. The whole hiking doesn't need much stamina except a little. We managed to reach the summit for about 30-45 minutes.

Not very far...just do it slowly...no need to rush

Pictures taken along the way:

Feels like somewhere in New Zealand or...

Resting place...I think at checkpoint 2

On top of the world

To the final checkpoint

At the top...2 peaks in one day

Conclusion:

Bukit Broga is not too heavy even for those who do not have stamina. Just do it slowly if you are not rushing.

I think we get a better view if we do it in the early morning which most of the people are doing. Moreover, it gets very hot along the way and at the top in the afternoon since there's no shade above there.

Good for morning exercise/jogging. Good for family outing as well. Nice view. But if you are travelling from a distant just to summit Bukit Broga...I think it might be a little bit not worth it. Luckily, we did it after summitting Bukit Tabur and we didn't spend much time above there since it gets dark pretty quickly.
