Broga Hill, my mini mount Kinabalu training

advertisement

Recently, me and my Sabahan gang went up a hill called Broga in the  Semenyih area. It’s really a nice place to check out. The slopes, hills and grass they all reminds me of the old series called ‘Little House on the Praire’

I think it takes around perhaps 15-20 minutes from the mines to reach the foothill where you can park your cars in the Palm Tree plantation area. From there all you need to do is follow a clearly marked trail up the hill. It could get pretty tiring I can tell you..

Here’s a road map from The Mines Shopping Complex to the foot hill entrance:

    Finally going up Mount Kinabalu are you? Have you been up the hill at Bukit Padang, Tun Fuad Stephens park? Only multiply that by a thousand, that’s what the route up the mountain is like.

    Or you could try working out on a stairs-master for 4 straight hours. I swear you’ll be going up what seems like a million steps.

    PaPaJ- It’s tiring but it was really good for ‘de-stressing’!

    Ron- Just DUIT!

    Adrian Lee- I want to.. hopefuly next year? Bukit Padang there? Never been lah… looks like Kinabalu is gonna be awesomely challenging!

    Kay,

    i think the time has come lah. For Gunung Kinabalu. We should plan.

    Tp i want to start exercising prolly a year baru dpt climb maybe. :)

    Regina, the climb is not that tough. Any reasonably fit and healthy person will not have a problem. It’s just that you have to climb up a million steps at one go!

    Tip: Drink lots of 100 Plus! It the only energy drink that works, and I’ve tried them all.

  8. Kay Stanford Jr Kastum on April 15th, 2009

    Regina- Let’s DUIT!

    Adrian Lee- Good tips la..

    Gurangak- Lompatan kamu juga tidak kurang chantek se-chara pria yang gagah!
