USING THE HEAD TRAIL NEAR SRI DAMANSARA
Hiked up Bt Lanjan at 8 a.m. from the head trail @156m elevation and reached the Telekom Tower at 9 a.m. @325m elevation. It took 20 minutes to trek up the laterite road from Perdana Damansara Main Road to the head trail near Sri Damansara. The trail was raw, steep and slippery. We have to hold onto tree trunks to pull ourselves up towards the last 15 minutes to the Telekom Tower Summit. The Summit was cool and windy. It has a good view of Kepong, Shah Alam and Damansara areas. On our way home, we decided to take the tar road downhill and were stopped by MK security guard who informed us that the MK boss do not welcome uninvited guests up the (his?) hill. Half way down the tar road, we took another trail back. The trail was neat, clear and beautiful. The trail ended along the main road leading to Armanee Terrace.
