Hutan Pendidikan Bukit Gasing — Attraction in Petaling Jaya

Of course I have to rate 5 stars because it is a nature gift from our loving mother earth.

Had been visited here more often than few years back before. Regardless morning or evening. Need to keep healthy and connect to nature.

Many things (environment) had changed especially the entrance has been renovated nicely and attentively.

I really love to get closer to nature nowadays.

Unfortunately, there are some group of IRRESPONSIBLE HUMAN throw rubbishes and even polystyrene box into the river/ the walking path OR just simply throw beside the chair or bin which I found it irritating !!!!

I found plastic bottles, candy plastic, tissues, all kinds of polystyrene, hand gloves, food, coffee, vaper stick at every corner of the jungle.

Also, especially under the STEEL bridge.. Too many rubbishes done by some stupid people ...

Doesn't it look PATHETIC ? It's often sad and helpless to see it.

It suppose to be protected and take good care by us. However, there are too many people TAKE THINGS FOR GRANTED . You enter it for free without being grateful enough by playing your own responsible part.

Often, for Normal people, they don't even bother to look at it and pick it up willingly ! They JUST care about their own HEALTH, their own business, but not the nature itself.

Since when can people realize and understand how much unconditional love we receive from The Earth every single day, every single minutes ?

It's the EGO and Selfishness, man....

So from now on, whenever I see it. I will prepare a plastic bag and pick it up.

Anyway, I will always love the nature and gasing hill very...

I'm in no way a frequent hiker but I really enjoyed myself there with my parents. We started our hike to the suspension bridge at around 7.15am and finished around 9.30am (including breaks). It can be a bit dark in the early hours and it was a tad bit crowded due to the time but definitely worth it. I would say that the trail to the suspension bridge would require some form of cardio ability (lots of stairs that go up and down) but the trail & bridge is well-maintained. Lots of friendly hikers as well and they were more than willing to let you know how to get from one place to another. One thing I didn't like was the lack of parking space (I would recommend you car pool), and I saw some cars with summons from the local council. Signages could be improved (I met another group of hikers who got lost) too. My suggestion to be prepared would be to have a cup of Milo before the hike and bring along some candy/ trail mix to keep you energised (especially if it's your first time or tire out easily), and a BIG bottle of water. Generally speaking, it was a great place to start your day. Reward yourself after with a hearty breakfast. You would...

Small forest, but many trails, with varying levels of difficulty. Almost got lost during the 3rd visit. There's no view at the peak though. Only a "pangkin" and another concrete ruin near it. There is a small stream near the west entrance, 3 small abandoned houses, 3 rest stops, a concrete walkway with benches along the way, 2 bamboo groves, a hanging bridge at the northwest end, with a long staircase like trail going up to it, and a recreational park and steel bridge on the east side. Some of the trails have rather steep sections, with high steps. It gets muddy at certain parts when it rains, and gets quite crowded during the weekends. Somewhat scary when there are few hikers. Moderate difficulty overall. Takes around 1 - 2 hours to complete a loop. There are toilets at the east and west main entrances. There are 3 main entrances - one at the west side, one on the east side, and one on the north side. And a few not so used "back entrances". Entry, parking and toilets are free. A hiking stick, some water, and a good pair of running shoes...
