The track from TC up to Bukit Pelindung is about 2km long
going up from sea level to about 220m
which took us about 30 minutes of slow walk.
There is a Mountain Bike trail running on the same route which is not well maintained
but there were a few daredevils in their fully padded suit and absorbers equiped bikes
speeding down the trail too fast for me to even take out my camera from the bag.
It can be quite dark under the canopy of these big trees.
A crowded TC beach on a beautiful sunday afternoon.
All except me warming up before the walk uphill.
The begining of the track up.
When tired there are plenty of chairs to sit and rest.
And shade if it rains.
A frog look alike stone.
Fresh mushroom growing well here.
Wild rattan is also a plenty here,
hopefully nobody touches it.
a petai tree too.
The mountain bike track.
This is the track at the north end of TC beach.
A rotten stump on the way down.
Plenty of younger replacement plant here.
At the end the track joins the road up the Pelindung Hill.
A communication tower on the hill top.
This Bukit Pelindung MTB track is one of my must visit list.
ReplyDeleteTo bad very far from Raub for regular biking.
It is a downhill track,bikers in full gear fully padded will park their cars in TC and cycle up by the hill road (to the communication towers) and down by the track.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos of your walk on the track. The boys are handsome, are they your sons. Great photos.

ReplyDeleteYah!Good for a healthy walk under the humid and thick forest canopy.
Great pics of the trail. That huge frog is good looking!!!
ReplyDeleteKeats The Sunshine Girl,
ReplyDeleteThe frog looks real.
Wow, I've always wondered what was up those stairs from TC beach but have been too scared in case there were spiders, snakes and other creepy crawlies! Ha!
