Bukit Cherakah Trailhead

Recommended to go early morning before the sun comes out as pretty alot of the places are exposed to sunlight so it gets pretty hard.

Basically walk through the oil palm area. This place seems to be pretty place to train trail run. Not so much of a hike but it was still decent to explore around.

We were directed to explore a small cave. To get there, there is this super steeeep slope downwards that requires arm strength

The famous octopus tree seems to be cut down. Huge piece of the land was torn down on the way to the peak 🙁

Easy trail with clearly marked signage. Starts with a steep hike up till you reach the check point. The view here is great. Right after that you just follow the rocky trail straight to the peak. The view at the peak isn’t much as trees are surrounding it. Go a little further and you will reach Bukit Botak. Good for a simple exercise.

easy trail. good for beginner. can bring kids here. if you like explore, can find gua down there after bukit cherakah. good for training here too.

Easy trail. 20 min get nice open view before reach the peak which have nothing just a signboard. Do not need to route to bukit botak. Just look for trail from power tower to Bayan tree.

Amazing views up top. There are two peaks here, and another bukit (Bukit Botak) is accessible through the second peak.

Takes about 40 minutes up and down both peaks if you go alone and walk at a moderate/quick pace. Bigger groups may take around 1 hour if going at a leisurely pace.

There’s moments of slightly intense steepness, and some parts that require usage of rope to pull yourself up, though this is minimal. Suitable for kids aged 7 and up.

Parking is aplenty right outside, and it appears to be busiest around weekend mornings. On weekday evenings it can be rather quiet with no cars in sight.
