Bukit Repin via Lepoh Waterfall, Hulu Langat

 

I would recommend bukit repin from Lepoh (rather from kemensah) as the distance is shorter and on the way back it's totally going down to lepoh waterfall. After Lepoh waterfall, it's flat like lempeng (pancake).

(If from kemensah, de-motivation comes after Lubuk Tedung all the way to finishing line)

You also may consider to hike bukit repin from Janda baik (Pahang), Kemensah (Ulu Klang) or Gunung Nuang, Hulu Langat (Pangsun) or if you are free and got nothing to do, you may do a full loop - Lepoh, Bukit Repin, Lentang Legong, Nuang, Janda Baik or vice versa..the trail could be crafted to suit your need.

Of course, the longer the trail, the more preparation you need to be aware off - drinks, water station, food, shelter, power bank, emergency kit, etc.

Leech are aplenty! So, I recommend to wear a leech socks, it will save your time, just keep on walking. If you use insect repellent, you may need to stop apply and reapply, that would cost you a precious time.

Dead-Tie knot your shoes string - untangled shoe string can be a nuisance during your hike. Just dead-tie it. Will show photo later on (cannot find in google..demm!)

Tired of your shoelaces coming off in the middle of hike? Dead-knot it...

A tiring day

This is the starting and end point

Ample parking space as you go deeper.

No need to worry about parking

Huge parking area

Started at 7.33am

Reached this ruin shack at 3.6km, another 5.9km to bukit repin

This is lepoh Waterfall, 3.9km from start

Get ready for hard inclination after this ya...

Just an ordinary tree

To show my lousy camera

We reached the junction to Bukit repin and lentang Legong at 7.5km from start, 2.5km more to peak of bukit repin.

Trail difficulty : hard...

This  is the crucial junction at 7.5km from start.

Please turn left. 

The bukit Repin junction ya...

Though it said on my watch its 2.5km more to peak of bukit repin (from the junction) but when I relook back on the actual distance, it was 3km from the junction. So, plus minus 2.5km - 3km...be prepare for this ya..

Yay! Finally! After 5 hours and 10.5km later, we landed at the peak of Bukit Repin.

From Bukit repin junction it took us 1 hour 36 minutes to reach the peak.

Trail difficulty - hard, up and down but mostly up

Been here couple of times..

Met hikers from Kemensah...

They felt tired like hell but satisfied

We're going down at 1.06pm, 25 minutes rested here

Reached back the junction 1 hour 25 minutes later

At lepoh waterfall, 17km from start. 3.49km to finish line. Downhill seems fast but extra careful.

I fell few times

Completed at 4.45pm after 9 hours 12 minutes of hike, 21.7km of total journey.

 Hope the readers benefits from this journey.

Overall distance and timing

Pre-hike briefing by Mr Eddie

This road is actually from Kombat Zone Paintball

can park your car here also

The road lead you up further but being blocked by those chairs.

On the right is where we came from (Kombat Zone Paintball)

Just walk straight uphill and you will reach here

220 metres from start to this junction

As soon as we go down the slope, there is a stall selling cold drinks and fruits.

This is the tricky part, better turn left, you can also go straight which also will turn left but a bit further

This is the sofea jane junction

From parking to sofia jane waterfall aka Kubang Gajah waterfall is 2.1km.

(Another 5.9km to Bukit Chenuang)

small waterfall/stream at 4.8km from start

After this, killer hills awaits...

It's 3.48km to Bukit Chenuang

The trail is clear and mostly dry

We reached Batu Kumbang at 6.89km later from start (7km la plus minus)

from this signboard to the top it's only a mere few meters - doesn't count la.

The best thing with suunto 5 is you able to measure your next waypoint and in this case, it's 1.64km to Bukit Chenuang. More killer hills (and down hills)..let's goooo....! 

Nice view...

There was little spot to stand...

Too many hikers from Kemensah...haha

Rested a bit, waiting for few fellow hikers to reach their goal, then, we headed down...i mean up and down...

Down from chenuang, up to batu kumbang, down from batu kumbang to parking
