Broga Hill is not tough to tackle. Gasing Hill in PJ is slightly more difficult compared with Broga Hill. (Note: it is just a hill, not a mountain/gunung which is more difficult eg. Gunung Datuk, Gunung Nuang etc.)

Just consider like taking a walk up a slow inclining trail. Have Fun guys as I will be outstation this weekend.

Glad to have this outing with fellow MWF buddies. There were 8 of us. Below are our record of achievements...  ;D

The Eagle has landed on the 1st peak...after 34 minutes.


The sun is yet to rise... view of Kajang? Puchong?




Wrist shots of fellow MWF members.


View of 1st peak.




Some casual shots...




2nd peak...


3rd and last peak...


Engkidu, see how relaxed I was after a 400M climb? haha...  :mooning:


This is life...


1st sunrise shot...




My Riseman showed 360M only, calibration is needed I think. But anyone know how to do it?


Time to descend...


Now the 1st peak is packed with climbers...


Broga Hill is also known as Bukit Lalang...






Wind beneath my wings...


We also went to a Temple in Broga. Monkey God is the focus of the locals, don't know why...






There is also a "Golden Gate Bridge" look alike here...








Jacky said this was the hill we climbed...


Hope u enjoy...

Good report and great pics.
Looks like you guys had a wonderful time.
Just wondering if the speedy pro belongs in the category of tough watch.
Glad that it survived the trip.

Thx Chris & Danny.

The Speedy Pro is tough, provided u own the one with sapphire glass.  ;D.
I accidentally scratched my watch on the granite boulder when trying to concur the last stage, where ropes were needed to help climbing (look at my 3rd peak photo). Thank God, it still unhurt.

Engkidu, no worry, there is always another chance to climb & prove yourself.  ;D
Just curios, thought u supposed to wear the Seiko chrono for this climb, what happened?
I'm keen to get one of this Seiko Chrono, mind pm me where & what price u paid for it?

Just to share some shots...


MWF man of the day !!!


Some do not understand y wake up so early in the Sunday!!!
When u r like them... on this hill... The morning breeze... The spectacular view... The feeling of achievement... The hard to get in KL fresh air... Worth it!!!


Broga town waken up


Golden glass seat - Catching the moment of golden egg yolk climbing up the hill...







B4 sunrise already few hundred ppl climbing up





To reach the top


If u r late... It's crowded


The toughest path...



U r right alvin its Lalang hill


Dato Rock



Y is he here???

Alvin - I hv some clue... Follow his eyesight


He is looking after u n every1 who climbing the broga hill all the time!!!

Better dont guess

He see what's seems to be just mist to me




I guess most ppl keeping to this temple to achieve this instead...
U remember the lucky numbers? Jacky? Gd luck!!!











Since too early for lunch... I tabao these





The rough leaf kuih by Hakka.... I bought the kosong want... Not every1 cup of tea due to its green taste... But thats the taste keep me knowing who m I and where I come from...

Bye bye broga n the master...
