On the summit of Gunung Datuk there are a lot of rocks and there are also open spaces to relax before going up to the highest peak using the stairs that have been provided. It's a bit horrifying to go upstairs when climbing a vertical ladder with a 90 degree angle swaying even though it has been tied up with a rope. Hikers are all obliged to climb the ladder of success to the top.
Trek 2.8 km from down to the top. We started the climb to the summit at 8.15am and reached the summit around 9.40am. If you're really fit, an hour or so can be up.
Nice to meet James Lee, Malaysian mountaineer James Lee Chong Meng, who is on a mission to reach the summit of Mount Everest. He also the oldest Malaysian climb reaches Mount Everest Base Case.
