Gunung Nuang (1,493m) is part of the Titiwangsa mountains bordering Selangor and Pahang, and is known as one of the highest mountain in Selangor (2nd highest actually). It is one of the more challenging hikes from KL and is done as a proper full day hike, a step-up from the usual Ophirs, or training hike for harder Malaysia hikes (Gunung Tahan, Liang, G7 etc) or further hikes in Nepal etc. There are 2 trails, and we are doing the one from Pangsun, which is the harder trail with ~5 river crossings! We will stay in KL so that we can enjoy the hike without rushing back to SG, and also spend some time enjoying KL the next day.

Who is this for?
=> People who wish to/can challenge themselves
=> People who have done full day hikes (e.g. Ophir) and wish to challenge themselves further
=> Wish to hike close to 12h and deal with undulating trails + rivers
=> 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 early and end late, so we expect some level of fitness or hiking experience for the group!

Hike Details
The total distance is ~20km and total elevation gain is ~1520m.The hike is around 8-12 in total, depending on your speed. This is longer than Ophir Asahan hike. It can and will be extremely tiring on your mind, body and legs.

It is generally tropical forest trail, with some steep inclines, rope portions, ladders, river crossings. Be prepared for the path to be narrow, muddy and steep! 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.
