I was hiking using an app called all trail which guided me and also a few blogs which told me which way to follow . To be honest I feel both route is steep at some level. But if it's raining , the route becomes muddy and super slippery, so be warned.

There's 2 route that you can take( not an expert here) , after walking straight you'll see a draw bridge , if you cross that you'll go up an easier path, if you don't take that and walk straight you'll have to climb up stairs . Than you'll meet at one part which a huge signboard which says gunung lambak. There you have again 2 options. The left route is faster but abit steep. There were ropes but I wasn't confident as it was raining so I tooth the right side which was longer but you'll be happy with the view. It took me 4 hours for a slow hike up and down, but alot of people I encountered said it took them 2 to 3 hours .

There's alot of people whom hike here, even kids. So If you were curious you can ask them questions about how to get up. Just warm up and stretch off before and...

We arrived at Gunung Lambak at 8:30 am, greeted by cool weather and a slight crowd. The climb to the summit, which stands at 510 meters, was semi-difficult for an absolute beginner but immensely enjoyable, as it primarily winds through a forest with cool, dewy shades.

Climbing Experience: The friendly and considerate climbers added to the experience, greeting each other with smiles and good mornings, making the ascent more pleasant and encouraging.

Summit: The summit has recently been renovated to include a boardwalk, offering a gorgeous view with various photo opportunities. The effort to reach the top was well worth it for the stunning scenery and the sense of accomplishment.

Descent: The hike down was just as enjoyable as the ascent, providing a satisfying end to the adventure.

Tips: I would definitely attempt this climb again, but it's essential to come early to enjoy the cooler weather and fewer crowds. Wearing proper grippy hiking shoes is a huge plus, ensuring a safer and more comfortable climb.

Overall: Gunung Lambak offers a rewarding and scenic climb, perfect for both beginners and experienced hikers. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy nature and a bit...

Went there on a sunny day. The trails were dry. Hiking was quite challenging due to multiple steep slopes, but everything went smoothly. It took me 2 hours to reach the peak and another 1 hour to go back down. I would recommend that you slow it down further if you are a beginner. Take your time hiking from one slope to another.

It is 510m to the peak from the sea level. Definitely not a good start for a beginner, but a good training place for people who are getting ready for a long hike.

Quite crowded at the entrance. The road to the entrance was too narrow for 2 cars passing by each other. So please be patient. There were quite a lot of small stalls selling drinking water, coconut juice, medicine and many other interesting stuff and food. The toilet was available too, at the entrance.

The view on top was nice. The hiking was worth it.

Please do regular exercise 1 week before hiking to build up stamina, wear proper shoes during hiking and bring enough...
