Malaysia is one of the technologically advanced countries in the East. However, the country is abundantly blessed with many natural resources as well as places. There is a world of activities away from the capital Kuala Lumpur. Sepang is an exciting place to check out if you are visiting Malaysia. There are plenty of things to do and explore here. Restaurants, cafes, shopping, circuits and if you want to pamper yourself- plenty of luxury Sepang Hotels. Malaysia has an interesting terrain too. Due to this, one of the activities that are becoming popular is mountain climbing. There is the Gunung Nuang in Selangor which is a tough climb but one that is worth. If you are super fit, a day would be sufficient to climb to the top and back, however, some others may take two days. There are campsites and shelters on the way. For those who seek a hint of luxury one of the options among the many available is AVANI Sepang Goldcoast Resort.
Apart from Gunung Nuang, there are plenty of other mountains around Malaysia to climb offering some of the best treks and views. The tallest mountain in Malaysia is Gunung Kinabalu. Located in Borneo the mountain and the rainforest area surrounding it are declared a UNESCO world heritage site.
Gunung Gagau’s climb is a great adventure as getting to the mountain’s base itself is a two-day journey along a river. One of the areas that cannot be forgotten when considering a good mountain trek is the Cameron Highlands. Gunung Beremdun is located in the highlands and offers cooler climates for climbing than the rest of South East Asia. Another mountain with incredible views is Gunung Jerai also known as “Kedah Peak”. Even though not a tall mountain its location among flat rice paddy fields offers incredible far out views.
