Bukit Putus (Gunung Angsi Trailhead) — Attraction in Negeri Sembilan

There are many entrances to get to the trail but the famous one is via Bukit Putus. You can access via Ulu Bendul too. To get to Bukit Putus entrance if you use Waze, make you it doesnt lead you into a housing area. That entrance was closed long time ago. Total distance of this hike is about 4.4km (according to Suunto watch). The first 1.5 km is a struggle but the rest of the trail is easier than Gunung Datuk. Again each hill and gunung has their own level of difficulty. Stops, small gazebos, benches are provided along the trail and take a good care of this facilities. You might not need them but someone else might. Be good to nature and to the one providing the facilities. At the peak you may find a large gazebo normally hogged by the overnight campers so don’t be despair. Malaysian mentality maaa. I came first, i chop first so you see only. We couldnt be more considerate when comes to this kind of occurrence. I was told Gunung Angsi was closed for a track recovery and clean up. The were piles of garbage, rubbish, plastic waste, sampah sarap contributed by the sampah masyarakat before this. Thank you Jabatan Perhutanan for the effort of reviving back the spirit of Gunung Angsi. Due to these cleaning and track recovery activities, a small amount of entrance fee is charged to hikers that costs MYR 5 only. Unlike Gunung Datuk, there are no stalls selling hot-cooked meals. Bring along your food keep it in the car in case you are hungry but the nearest town isnt that far. Toilets are provided and they are free! Gunung Angsi is suitable for beginners. Dont worry you will arrive the peak within an hour and a...

Quite a nice hike to do as long as it's not crowded (which it tends to be on the weekends). On average, if you are relatively fit, it will take you approximately an hour and a half to get up, and another hour and a half to make your way down. So budget about 3-4 hours to do this hike. There are steep parts that will challenge you, but it isn't technical. Hiking shoes are a must because the trail is muddy sometimes, and full of tree roots you could potentially twist your ankle on. As it is pretty much humid everywhere in this country, the only thing we can really control is the temperature which is cooler in the morning so I would advise starting this hike by about 8:00 a.m. The trailhead is impossible to miss because there is a big structure in front of it and you have to pay RM5 to get in. You go up and down the same trail, which is well trodded so you won't get lost. it is possible to come down the other side of the mountain but that's closed at the moment because of MCO. The view at the top is nothing to shout about because they don't really trim the tops of the trees so you can't see the entire valley in its glory. But it is a really good trail...

This is an updated review from my hike on 08.08.2025. (Friday)

Thanks to the authority for the effort of ensuring cleanliness of the toilets/bathrooms while the spoiled metal stairs at the trailhead has been replaced by wooden stairs. Thanks too for opening on weekdays. Hikers are fewer and much less crowded at the peak.

Trail ranges from easy to moderate. The starting can be a bit taxing but slope becomes more gentle gradually. Markings of the distance are in place and the trail is clear and safe.

Permit is required, very convenient. Register your details, then pay RM5. at the counter and a wristband will be given. Good to wear it. Permit for foreigners is RM20.

Ample roadside parking but make sure you park at a safe spot. Drinks stalls are available on weekends but likely not open on weekdays.

The cool fresh air inside the jungle is truly inviting. Really love this place. It's one of my favourite spot to...
