Here you goes for all the photos taken ( of course there are more than you can view from here)



It's our first time to come to Gunung Datuk. It's not a near as we expected. We managed to find the place after been lost for about half an hour. Finally after those few wrong turns and directions, we manage to reach the ACTUAL Gunung Datuk.

There are tolal of 11 persons in our group (some have aeroplane us-actual group is about 20). Yet we still go on with the trekking.

Is the the starting trek, going down the stairways.

The trail up getting more interesting, from what I found out from anotehr group, they said the trail will be up all the way to the peak. It's really a nice trail. But supprisingly, there is a couple who went up and the girlfriend is wearing "Vxxci" sandal. It's really cool man, you can wear something so feminine in the jungle.

We are reaching the peak after 2 hours trek. This is the last part of the mountain where you can see a rocky place. I strongly do not advise anyone that have no confident to come up to this area. It can be a dangerous place to hang out. If you fall down, there you go. I guess cannot find you anymore.


We are very proud for been a Malaysian. The flag is there for us (ready all the TIME). I was so amazed with the beautiful scenary at the peak. You will just feel like yourself at MOUNT KK.
