Broga Hills 17 May 2009

This is my 4th trip to Broga Hills. The last trip was documented in http://happyotrekker.blogspot.com/2008/08/broga-hills-030808_7.html.

As planned, we started late at about 8.40 a.m.and took the clockwise loop. We were indeed very surprised to see more than 50 cars already parked around the access road to the trail head. Along the way, we met many people backtracking to return to the base. Broga Hills is fast turning into a popular place for weekend hikers. We can only reminisce about the peace and tranquility that we used to enjoy. On the other hand, it is good to find many people enjoying trekking.

We reached the 3rd hilltop at about 10.05 a.m. Luck was not with us again for we were unable to view the Petronas Twin Towers & KL Tower. The last time we saw the 3 towers was in July 08 - see http://happyotrekker.blogspot.com/2008/07/broga-hills-6-july-08_7.html.

After spending some time enjoying the countryside view, we continued our way downhill through the rubber/oil palm estates (which offered much respite from the hot sun) and reached the base at 11.25 a.m.
