Gunung Nuang

🥾 Hiking Trails · Pangsun, Hulu Langat, Selangor

Selangor's highest peak and the usual training ground for people eyeing Kinabalu. It is a long, honest slog through jungle, with camps at Lolo and Pacat to break the climb.

Don't miss: Reaching Kem Pacat and the ridge views toward the summit

🌺🌺🌺Worth the Detour

Gunung Hitam

🥾 Hiking Trails · Sungai Lui, Hulu Langat, Selangor

The quieter, tougher neighbour of Gunung Nuang: a 1,220 m peak on the Selangor-Negeri Sembilan border, reached by a long climb through proper rainforest with rope sections near the top. Far fewer people do it, so it suits hikers who want a serious day out without the Nuang crowds.

Don't miss: The KL View checkpoint about 1.5 hours in, then Batu Gobok on the ridge
