TABUR EXTREME THROUGH THE SECRET GARDEN.

Six hikers set out on a hike at tabur .The mission to look for the lost trek linking tabur extreme and to go where no Tabur Hikers have gone before..Our journey starts from the secret garden .We have to cut through some undergrowth in our search to look for the marker left by some hikers who had gone there. Each time we found one there were scream of excitment but all that soon die down as we seems to get nowhere.After two hours of searching for the impossible trek, we vote to abort the hike and set to return to our cars. On the way downhill we were looking for our marker in order to get out of the thick wood , when we saw what look like a rope on the rocky hill. As we get closer it was confirm, we had found what we came to look for.All of us was filled with joy as we climb up from the other side of tabur extreme.On the way down we took another route instead of our normal route .The trek was wider and much easier to access. On the way we met two orang asli with two big baskets. We called out to them "ada durian ah?" (any durians) and they answered in the affirmative. They bekon to where they were to savour the durians. Now who could resist such an offer. ? After our durians feast, they showed us another shorter route back to where our car was. It took us 7 hours and 11.8 km for the whole hike. It was a very exciting and rewarding hike indeed. We found more than just one short cut. Misson accomplished
A Friend have successfully trek from Tabur extreme all the way to Tabur East. That is very interesting. Something worth trying. See his story here.

  1. Hi,

    I am Azalea and a beginner in hiking who just moved to Johor. Do you still hike and may I join your hiking group? It is boring during the weekends since I'm not familiarized with the place and people here..
