Saga Hill 7 Dec 2008




We decided to hike up Saga Hill after experiencing the steep descent from Ah Pak San via Saga Hill on 23.11.2008, We took about 50 minutes to climb up the shortest and steepest Route A to reach the top clearing and 45 minutes to return by the longer and less steep Route C. Route C passes through a Survey Point, likely the highest point of Saga Hill at 415m elevation. This Saga trail appeared less congested compared to APS but equally muddy especially the popular Route A.

The Saga trail is good for a short vigorous workout. The vast clearing at the Saga top and the mini waterfall at the trailhead are pleasant and shady for R&R.

For access to the trail head of Saga Hill at Jalan Saga 28, one must pass through Taman Melur in order to get to Taman Saga. Please refer to road map at: http://wikimapia.org/#lat=3.1112914&lon=101.7754555&z=14&l=0&m=m&v=2.

  3. Got this Tissot One-Touch from American Watch in Megamall. There are many such watch in the market. The common names are Garmin, Suunto and Nomad. They come in many designs and features to fit individual lifestyles. Advise you to research from internet and list out your priority features. Best of Luck....

  4. Thanks for the update and direction. For people like me who is sitting in the arm chair, not knowing what is happening in Ah Pak San now, this new story reminds me of the saying "When someone closes the door, the Lord would open a window some where!

    Cheerio and Thanks
