bukit lalang / broga hill




last Saturday, my friends and I went to Broga Hill in Semenyih. Out of the blue, bestie whatsapped 'jom gi broga'. Since people around me keeps saying things like 'ooh, it is not that high' 'easiest hill i had ever climbed' 'sumpah senang', I really thought it was an easy climb and said 'ok, lets go there the day after tomorrow'. Besides, i had seen photos of this place and saw pictures of small children at this place. in my mind, i had imagined the climb to be super easy, proper pathways and that sort of stuff. -___________-"

at first we wanted to go there at 300am, but we overslept and went at 400am instead. lucky thing we didn't get lost. it took around an hour to get to this place from subang jaya.

honestly speaking, going up was exhausting and bit scary but it wasn't bad. we took 2 breaks and took us 45 minutes to reach the first peak. so if for a fit person, i think it'll take around 15 minutes.

going down was scary as the path is slippery ANDDD i've always been scared of climbing downhill ㅠ.ㅜlogically the journey downhill should be faster than going uphill, but it took almost an hour. grrrr you stupid fear.

anyhoo, if you happen to live around broga but have never went up this hill, you should. the view is nice and i think compared to other places, the climb isn't extremely hard to do ^^, (i'm not physically fit, i rarely exercise and a scared y cat, so please ignore the above rambling)
