Bukit Tabur

Located just 30 minutes drive from the city centre of Kuala Lumpur; Bukit Tabur is a quartz ridge in the North East of Malaysia. The hills surrounding the ridge are a great place for hiking. The total climb takes around 3 to 4 hours depending on the fitness levels. Climbing the sharp ridge is a thrilling experience. The strenuous hike is rewarded with stunning panorama of Taman Melawati and downtown KL in the distance.
