    Hilly Jogging place

    I'm getting myself ready and fit for a climb in Mount Kinabalu. Can I know in is there any hilly jogging place? Or a hill for joggers? I like Batu Caves but a bit too far from Klang.

    For MK, Klang reservoir is more than enough to train your stamina and fitness…that’s where I trained for Gunng Tahan…long ago. Make sure you carry your backpack when you train…that’s all

    All the Best!

    Now, where is Klang reservoir? Any map? You must be crazy. I've thought of hiring a back packer. Better still, piggy back me up to the mountain. lol.

    Yes, go ahead and hire a porter. They will help you carry your bag all the way. But most importantly, they are train not to leave you out of sight. But piggy back? cannot lah!

    What about the hill park in Andalas, its small hill but do more round lah

    Opposite the Klang hospital main entance, there is a road, go right to the end, you reach a T-junction, turn left and about 1 km you will see the little hill park.

    Hope it help
