Surely everyone knows the Rawang Bypass, the second highest roadway viaduct in Malaysia that serpentines through the Selangor State Heritage Park and Templer Park. Because of its length of more than ten kilometres, the highway can't be seen in its whole, but the lookout point at the west of Templer Park provides some spectacular views.

The hike to the Bypass is very short, so we start with a detour in Rawang Perdana before heading for the lookout point. We will then descend and follow the trail parallel to the highway back to the car park.

This hike is quite easy apart from the steep ascent and descent to and from the lookout point on Bukit Matt. However there are ropes in place. The total distance will be between five and six kilometres.

We don't follow the same way in and out, so there is no possibility to take a shortcut, and you can't turn back.

**IMPORTANT:** Make sure you have a gps navigation app (like \~in alphabetical order\~ AllTrails (paid version), Gaia, Hiiker, Komoot, [Maps.me,](http://maps.me,/) OSMAnd, Wikiloc,...) installed on your phone and make sure that it is working properly. If you don't have an app installed yet, we suggest to use Hiiker to start with. Once you have downloaded the offline map of Malaysia, you can easily import and navigate any gpx file. More info can be found in the Knowledge Base sub *Event Information (general) - How to prepare myself for navigation...?*

**Do not come to the venue if you have not pre-installed a gps navigation app at home, or have not downloaded the map of Malaysia at home, or have not opened the test gpx file at home.**

Every week, we notice that too many hikers arrive just before the event starts and are absolutely not prepared which is jeopardising the scheduled timing of the event. Especially iPhone users are urged to make sure that they can open the test gpx file at home and are able to navigate.

This is a self-guided hike. You will receive a gpx file at the trailhead and you will have to navigate yourself. There will be no paper markers. For those who are not familiar with gps navigation, you will be guided but still have to use your own navigation app on your phone.

By 12:00 pm the last hikers should have reached the car park again.
Do note that the indicated meet-up time is **not** the time you should arrive at the meet-up location. It is the time that the hike effectively ***starts.*** The QR code for the gpx file can be scanned at the trailhead from 08:15 am onwards. You can start your hike at any time between 08:15 am and 09:00 am.
