Gunung Rajah (1,680m) is part of the same area as Genting Highlands and Bukit Kutu, as they belong to the same section of the Titiwangsa mountains near Kuala Kubu Bharu (KKB). It is one of the more challenging hikes from KL. One of the highlights about Gunung Rajah is the challenge, as well as the clear weather views from the summit. While there are 2 trails, we are starting from the one from KKB. Do note that this is a trip which requires a lot of flexibility as it can depend on how fast everyone hikes as well as weather conditions.
Who is this for?
=> People who wish to/can challenge themselves (I would say to the point of torture)
=> People who have done full day hikes (e.g. Ophir) and wish to challenge themselves further
=> Wish to hike more than 12h and deal with undulating trails
=> Training for tough hikes (high altitude hikes etc)
=> Generally suited for more experienced hikers who know they can last at least 12h hiking
Do note that we might start and descend at night, so we expect some level of fitness or hiking experience for the group!
Hike Details
The total distance is ~26km and total elevation gain is ~2000m.The hike is around 12-18h in total, depending on your speed. This is almost 2x as long as Ophir Asahan hike. It can and will be extremely tiring on your mind, body and legs.
It is generally tropical forest trail, with some rope portions, ladders, rivers. Do note that there will be lots of ups and downs so be mentally prepared for it.
This is good for people who have some level of fitness and hiking experience. As this can be quite a challenging route, the group pace will be quite fast and we'll push at a certain speed.
There is also a cut-off timings which we'll enforce more strictly. If you fail to make it you will have to turn back unfortunately, as the distance is long. We aim to all be back down by 8pm.
How many pax for the trip to happen?
Minimum 12 pax to start the trip!
A Whatsapp group will be set up and information sent through there.
