Aktiviti di pagi Sabtu awal bulan haritu. Lama sungguh tak ke sini. Mula-mula datang ke sini tahun 2007. Teringat kat 'arboretum' ni masa tengok citer DOTS la...Descendants of the Sun..
Episod last. Masa heroin tengah riki2 tempat menarik kat jam internet dia ni, tetiba keluar 'Korea National Arboretum'..
Let's walk and get some fresh air. Memang tepat. Fresh air. Back to nature. Jom ke KL Arboretum.
"The word arboretum comes from the Latin arbor, "tree," and the suffix -ētum, "place," making the meaning "a place of trees." The concept of the arboretum goes back even further than the word itself, all the way to the ancient pharoahs of Egypt, who raised and studied trees from other lands. The oldest known arboretum in the Western world is the Trsteno Arboretum, in Trsteno, Croatia, which was established in the 15th century"
Lokasi KL Arboretum ni di Changkat Abang Haji Openg, Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI). On the way nak gi ke Bukit Kiara Golf & Country Resort, kalau ikut Taman Tun. Tapi jangan keliru, di Taman Tun, ada tiga taman - Kiara Park, Taman Lembah Kiara dan Taman Persekutuan Bukit Kiara, semuanya dekat-dekat belaka. Zon Arboretum in sebahagian dari Taman Persekutuan Bukit Kiara.

"In even the busiest of cities you can often find an arboretum,
a sort of museum for trees, where many different types of trees and
shrubs are growing, kept for scientific study and for the enjoyment of
the general population" - source: vocabulary

Parking kereta di jalan ni. Jom start mendaki. Ikut jalan tar.
Dari jauh dah nampak banyak monyet-monyet berkeliaran. Bergayut-gayut di kiri kanan jalan. Nak snap gambar pun takut. Takut dirampasnya, bawak lari masuk dalam hutan, memang menangis tak berlagu la. Tapi monyet-monyet ni tak nampak macam ganas sangat, takde la kacau-kacau orang..berjalan dengan tenang tapi mata jeling-jeling juga..hehe..
peta trek. memula semua akan naik ikut trek 1
jauh juga, lepas tu ada pilihan 3 trek lagi

Fuhh..walaupun cuma berjalan santai-santai je, tapi kena mendaki, memang semput jugalah. Dah habis trek 1, pilihan ramai, trek 2.

Selain jalan ikut jalan tar, bagi yang more adventurous, boleh hiking dalam hutan, itu baru betul2 mendaki..lebih mencabar...so, sesiapa yang sedang cari tempat untuk exercise, check it out..
