Taman Saujana Hijau – Best Picnic Spot in Putrajaya?

With RMCO (Recovery Movement Control Order, aka Malaysia’s version of lockdown) being extended until end of the year, our country’s border is still closed and any oversea travel is still prohibited. After months of travelling domestically, you may probably start to run out of idea of where to go. With places like Cameron Highlands, Langkawi, Penang, Ipoh and Melaka crossed off the list, some of us started to find things to do in KL instead. And picnic is fast becoming a popular weekend activity. And when we talk about picnic, one particular park in Putrajaya is getting lots of attention lately. 

Gunung Nuang via Pangsoon (Hulu Langat) – Popular Training Ground For Upcoming Big Hikes

Exactly 4 years ago (15 Oct 2016) on Facebook, I wrote:

“First Nuang experience, 20km hike... The most strenuous day hike I ever did. No wonder this place is training ground for G7 mountains... I should have come sooner!”

As Facebook reminded me of my first Nuang hike 4 years ago, I recalled that I have never blogged about this hike before. Back then I have just started my blog and was more interested in blogging about my oversea and local travels. Day hike was not in my interest. However, as time passed, I hiked more and more hills and mountains and ended up writing about every single hike regardless of the difficulty and duration. It’s a pity Nuang were left out despite being a very interesting hike and an important milestone in my hiking life. 

Mount Kinabalu (Timpohon-Timpohon) – The Hike That Changed My Life

Those close and dear to me or those who have followed my blog from the very beginning would have known that I started this blog right after my Mount Rinjani (Part 1 and Part 2) hike. However, that beast is definitely not my first mountain. Having climbed and blogged a number of mountains and hills over the past 4 years, the very first mountain I scaled was actually Mount Kinabalu, Malaysia’s highest mountain, 2 years prior to my Rinjani hike.
