The climb of Gunung Datuk is a relatively short one as its height is only 884m asl but earn its difficulty level due to the steepness of the climb. Especially the first part is very steep, with an average gradient of 35% for the first kilometre and the last part which is stairway ladder climb to the peak.We'll head for Rembau and park our cars at Gunung Datuk's base camp. The entrance fee is RM5 per person to be paid directly at trailhead.
With it's 2.7 km one way, the hike is not that very long at all and the trail is quite straightforward. This type of short climbs attracts of course a lot of climbers, so it can be crowded on the slope of the hill and on the top itself. But it is the top which is worth doing the climb after all. It consists only of huge boulders, which have to be climbed using ladders (it's safe!) and then there is an unobstructed view of 360 degrees. If we're lucky we might be able to see Seremban and even the Straits of Malacca. If the weather is fine we surely will spend some time at the summit.
Own snack/lunch, min of 1.5L of water, power bar is pre-requisite for the hike.
