This is my first hiking for the year 2010. Have been quite some time I didn't go for hiking beacause of the raining season is December.
Should be around 2 month I didn't go for hiking. Ok now ready for the story of Gunung Dato.
Mr. Seen the organizer have make an event on facebook. should be around 50 member have confirm to Gunung Dato.
All the participant will wait at Senawang toll then all together more than 10 car head to Gunung Dato.
How to go Gunung Dato from KL?
From KL just use the Serembam Highway go straight until you reach the Senawang exit or Kuala Pilah. from the toll around 50 meter got a traffic light turn right.
Go straight around 40 minutes you may reach Gunung Dato and you may see road sign for Gunung Dato along the way, Just follow the road sign will do.
After we all reach the car park is not much parking spaces left, the uncle at the Gunung Dato will collect RM 3 for entrances fees. 9.20 am we start to hike up the mountain.At the beginning of the track for Gunung Dato is very difficult to breath for me. Lack of oxygen and very crowded for 50 over member. So I go to wait all to go up first before I move again. Around 12 am finally I manage to reach up Gunung Dato.Photos taken by Real Ho before start to hike
The peak of Gunung Dato very windy that day, feel nice. Hanging around 1 hour in the peak for eating and enjoying chit chat with each around 1.10 pm start to going down.2 pm I have reach down, Finally done for first hiking trail of the year.
Then start for Seremban tour after Gunung Dato.
