Gunung Berembun : revisited 6-8 Feb 2009

The last time I climbed Gunung Berembun was 3 yrs ago .. March 2006 ! Trip kali ni kira revisited lah .. ;)

Spt biase kami camp kat Sg Pauh .. murah, bersih n best of all can sleep under the sky (inside our tents .. of course !) My tent yg warna merah tuh .. by the river ;)

Next morning : Early breakfast .. store energy for the hike .. huhu ;)

Briefings before the hike ..

Here we go .. left right left right .. BTW, the trail head to Berembun is just behind our campsite at Sg Pauh .. ikut jer punca sungai tuh ..

Follow trail #6 ..

Certain parts of the trail is quite clear n flat / landai ..

Suddenly .. a deep drop ..

Menurun ..

Amboih .. sempat berposing kejap tuh .. ;)

Camni lah trek dia .. ada naik, ada turun ..

Posing lagi .. senyum sakan nampaak .. ;)

The Semutar Man ..

Tarik apa tuh ? .. nasib baek ada akar kayu utk bantu !

... untuk menurun ..

By the time kami sampai kat pondok ni, a gp of Mat Salleh pun beredar after berehat kat situ seketika ..

Byk terdapat papan tanda kat rest area nih .. insyaAllah u won't get lost ..

Bergambar bersama Otai segala trekkers .. Bro Sham Castello .. ;)

Gp photo kenangan kat puncak Gunung Berembun .. but what an eye sore, ada mamat mana lah yg gatal tangan conteng graffiti kat label puncak gunung .. xbrhati perut sggoh diorg nih !

Lapak2 kejap sambil makan apa yg ada dlm backpack ..

Nice views from summit ..

One for the album ..

Ruang berteduh kat summit ..

Mek Salleh nih mmg ganah .. berketul2 muscles dia .. Sume takut nak tegur dia !

Dok lama2 kat puncak .. sambil menikmati suasana ..

Time to get down .. kami ikut trek ke stesen MARDI ..

Exit point ..

Strawberry farm .. ;)

Kemudian lalu ikut tea plantation ..

YES ! we did it .. again ..;)

Berhenti rehat n makan2 kat kedai koperasi Stesen MARDI .. strawberry ice creams, strawberry yogurt .. teh strawberry .. everything ada strawberry .. ;)

Mission accomplished .. Tq Allah !

Gunung Berembun - Cameron Highlands : 3-5 Mac 2006

Upon arrival at Cameron Highlands, dropped by for Strawberry ice cream !

Checked-in at Sg Pauh camp site .. pitched up tent ..

Syukur dpt pondok lokasi kat tepi sungai .. ;)

Early 'simple' dinner .. seronok dpt makan ramai2 .. merapatkan silaturrahiim .. ;)

After Isyak, went out to Brinchang town, ronda2 kat pasar malam .. looking for more dinner .. huhu ;) Jagung bakar .. panas2 beb ! Perghh ;)

Back at the campsite .. Cuaca malam tu mmg sejuk giler .. pakai 2-3 helai baju pun masih rasa sejuk ! Tidur awal .. sbb esok nak trekking ;)

The next morning : Group photo at campsite, before the hike  ..

Fuyooh ! Bro Sofian nampak ganah berbaju kuning .. ;)

Amboih Soleh ! siap peluk batang pokok tu .. jgn ler smpai gitu skali bro .. huhu ;)

Byk papan tanda menunjukkan laluan / trails yg boleh diikuti .. insyaAllah x sesat .. ;)

Laluan ke puncak perlu tempuhi uphill n downhill .. sometimes can be quite frustrating - dah naik naik pastu turun balik, n then naik semula ..

Taking a breather .. Tu dia Atoi n Imah .. kemain lagi !

Atoi the otai trekker !

The final climb to the summit ..

Alhamdulillah akhirnya smpai jugak puncak Berembun .. gp photo at the summit !

Views yg canteq ..

Sham ajak Liza utk berpoco2 ker tu ? hehe ;) Btw ruang kat puncak x lah besar sgt, tp cukup utk 15-20 ppl duduk rapat2 .. agak pack jugak arr ;) Cuaca tengah hari tu agak panas !

One for the album with my son Syahidi on the summit of Gunung Berembun at 1840m ASL ..;) Note: ASL = above sea level = APL = atas paras laut .. ;)

We descent thru Trail #7 that exits at MARDI station ..

Laluan semasa turun byk semak .. esp bila dah sampai level bawah ..

Finally, sampai bawah .. greeted by Strawberry farm .. ;)

Pastu Tea plantation pulak ..

Mission accomplished ! conquered Gunung Berembun with Syahidi .. ;)

Byk bunga2 cantik n colorful kat Stesen MARDI .. but for ur eyes only, xleh petik !

Walking out of Stesen MARDI ..

Matahari terik ..

Back at the campsite ..

After washing up n mandi manda air sungai yg sgt sejuk, badan kembali segar .. but not for long .. ;)

Tdo lena .. kepenatan .. ;)

Whipping up a sumptuous dinner .. thanks to our Master Chefs - Liana n Salahuddin .. ;)

Dinner time .. ;)

Bye2 Sg Pauh .. c u again nxt time .. insyaAllah ;)
