This is no large expedition, but the trip does involve a minimum of 60km Jungle treking. There are two roots to the top, one 3 day one starting from merapoh covering aprox 60km for the return trip, and a seven day trip from the other side of the mountain. The mountain is situated in the middle of Taman Negara, Malaysia's enormous rainforest national poark, and the view from the top os extremely good.
