📌 **Part 1 Hike**
***[Bukit Payung](https://youtu.be/RWXjlms5l_Q)***, which literally translates to **“Umbrella Hills”** in the Malay Language, is a small hill in Batu Pahat. With an elevation of less than 300m, the hills on this part of the trail are overshadowed by the many other popular mountains in Johor. The 5 bukits are: Bukit Botak, Bukit Berdiri, Bukit Alam, Bukit Bandkuit, and Bukit Payung. Though only \~300 m tall, the route along the ridges provides **excellent views of the surrounding terrain and towns**.

Though the trek may sound daunting, many hikers have reviewed the jaunt to be a beginner-friendly one, thanks to the gentle-sloping terrains. Consider it just the **right amount of cardio** to work up an appetite for a *lok lok* feast after. Suitable for active beginners looking for new hiking challenges.

* **Trail Features:**
The route features a mix of forest paths and open grasslands, providing varied terrain and rewarding scenic viewpoints.
* Total hiking distance 6 km +-, elevation 400 m+-, 5.5 hours
* **Difficulty:**
The hike is generally considered easy to moderate and beginner-friendly, but it requires a good level of fitness to complete in under half a day. **The last section to Bukit Payung includes some scrambling, but nothing too difficult**.

📌 **Part 2 Hike**
**Bukit Segenting Lighthouse** is a charming coastal lighthouse located near Batu Pahat. Perched atop Bukit Segenting Hill, the lighthouse stands as a beacon guiding ships along the Malacca Strait. Built in 1978, this active lighthouse features a modest yet sturdy concrete tower, offering visitors panoramic views of the surrounding sea and nearby islands. The site is accessible by a short hiking trail, making it a popular spot for nature lovers and photographers who want to enjoy scenic ocean vistas.
The trail is about **1.1 km out-and-back**, paved and moderately steep, making it suitable for casual hikers and families. It takes roughly **15–25 minutes** to reach the summit. Along the way, enjoy the fresh sea breeze, lush greenery, and occasional glimpses of the ocean through the trees.
At the top, you’ll be greeted by a stunning **panoramic view of the coastline**, the South China Sea.

**[Local breakfast](https://www.trip.com/moments/detail/batu-pahat-14799-132187925/)** \- Yong Peng’s Culinary Pit Stop with Heart
This Coffee Shop is a **nostalgic** culinary landmark that locals love and travelers can’t resist. Foodies stop by for the hearty fare, **old-school charm**, and **authentic** Malaysian flavors that hit all the right notes. This humble, no-frills coffee shop is the kind of place where the clink of ceramic cups and the aroma of kopi-o set the tone for a classic Malaysian dining experience. Simple plastic chairs, tiled floors, and the buzz of friendly chatter give it a comforting, time-travel kind of atmosphere. It’s where tradition lives and taste leads.
It’s where generations of locals have gathered over breakfast or lunch, where travelers can mingle with regulars, and where the soul of Yong Peng’s food scene truly shines.
