Take nothing but photo, leave nothing but footprint.
Bukit Broga located in Semenyih and is popular among weekend leisure hikers.
Every weekend (I repeat, every weekend) the parking area are filled with cars.
Hundred of hikers will climb their way through an easy to moderate trail difficulty.
GPS coordinate to Broga car park : 2.938398, 101.901214
Unlike those days where the trail was a single trail and later developed from a multi-trail to more advance multi-multi stage trails. All the trails will lead you to the top, and some skipping few minor hills which was compulsory previously.
There are 4 hills divided into 4 sections, you might climb it all...haha, the 4th is the top.
The journey from bottom to Broga peak is approximately 1.7km, further up is Gunung Tok Wan another 3km and finally Puncak 18 (1.2 km more) which is the new chapter under Broga series.
Let's push your limit beyond Broga and headed to Gunung Tok Wan and Puncak 18 for an exciting new adventure (like dora the explorer)

Depending on which route you take, it will lead you to here
at the back of broga peak, please find this signboard leading to Gunung Tok Wan
Easy to spot. Just enter the trail
1 hour plus later, you will reach the top of Gunung Tok Wan
The condition was misty on that day.
This is the signboard of Gunung Tok Wan.
The wooden makeshift chair was no longer there.
From the Gunung Tok Wan Signboard, please look right.
This trail cannot escape from your view. Very easy to find. But no signboard lah.
1.2km later after few fall attempt, I made it to this open area. Also got no view or maybe there is but I dont know...haha.
Anyway, this is the end of the road.
It is also known as Bukit Hulu Beranang by some quarters, which I dont have a clue.
This is the opening area at the peak of Puncak 18, a flat, grassy open surface surrounded by not so tall trees. Why it is called puncak 18 remain unknown or I'm too lazy to google around, nevertheless, trail to puncak 18 was another trail to conquer and treat as one of your mild training.
