This is a good step-up hike for those who are looking to progress to tougher hikes after Gunung Datuk or are training or preparing for Kinabalu/Nepal etc.

Gunung Ledang, or commonly known as Mount Ophir (1,276m) is the highest mountain in Johor and almost the most climbed mountain there.

Update: I just got the latest prices from the national park, the prices for the park are almost 3 times of what it was last time. I will try to keep my prices reasonable

Who is this for?

It serves as a good training or progressive hike for those who wish to do more hiking. Most do it as training for other treks, like Kinabalu, or Nepal.

How tough is it/How fit do I have to be?

It is twice as long as Gunung Datuk. The trek is around 4-5h up and 3-4h down, making it a total of 9h. The total elevation is around 1,000m up and down. It can be quite tiring on your legs.

It is generally tropical forest trail, with some rope portions, ladders and rock faces...read more (http://www.threeplaygrounds.com/adventure/hiking-series-beginner-step-up-to-gunung-ledang-mount-ophir-malaysia/594?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=meetupteaser)
