Bukit Jugra

🌺🌺🌺 Worth the Detour · 🥾 Hiking Trails

Why go

A low royal-town hill by the Langat estuary with a 1976 lighthouse on top and paragliders drifting off the ridge when the wind behaves. Short jungle trails and a sunset over the mangroves make it a lovely add-on to a Jugra heritage day.

⭐ Don't miss: Sunset from the lighthouse ridge, with paragliders if the wind is right
