Gunung Lambak (Mount Lambak) is a popular hiking destination located in the Kluang District of Johor, Malaysia, standing at an elevation of 510 metres. It is widely regarded as a beginner-friendly mountain, though it features varied terrain that can still provide a good workout for experienced hikers.

Hiking Overview
The mountain offers several trails ranging from paved roads to steep jungle paths.

The Gunung Lambak Butterfly Route, Johor, that connects the two summits of Gunung Lambak (510m) in a shape resembling a butterfly. This intermediate-to-advanced trail is renowned for its steep, technical terrain, narrow ridges, and dense forest, making it a popular training ground for larger hikes.

Key Features of the Butterfly Route

• Total Distance: Approximately 10 – 12 km (variations exist, with some short-cut routes recorded at 10 km).
• Elevation Gain: Roughly ~ 900+ meters, with steep, non-stop climbs. 👉 A few sections with ropes and tree roots only! Gloves will be good. 👈
• Duration: Typically takes 5–6 hours, depending on pace and trail conditions. 👉 We will start earlier and allow more time for a slower pace. Safety is of utmost importance. 👈
• Highlights: Covers both the North and South peaks, passing through steep, rooted terrain, ridge walks, and dense, scenic jungle.

Route Details

• The "Butterfly" Concept: The route lets you summit both the North and South peaks in one go. You typically go up one summit, descend, and then climb back up the other to complete the "wings" of the butterfly.
• Terrain: Expect dense forest, sprawling tree roots, and muddy trails. Some sections have a 60-degree incline requiring the use of fixed ropes.

Who is Suitable?
Regular hikers, who have hiked in Malaysia's terrain before, will appreciate the beginner-friendly options: Panti, Pulai, Broga, Arong, Blue Lake, Bukit Mor, or the intermediate options like Datok and Angsi. This will be a higher level up your skills. Not suitable if you never hiked in Malaysia jungle terrain before. Parks & Garden not counted.
