Bangar, bike and Bukit Patoi

This a combined cycle and walk, from Bangar to Bukit Patoi. The road is an excellent highway, mostly with a wide shoulder, and the 300m climb up Bukit Patoi follows a very well used trail. At the foot of the climb are buildings, including toilets and water. Make sure you drink often.

It is best done early in the morning to avoid the heat. Even so, you will sweat lots. The ride and the walk both take just over half an hour, so give yourself three hours to look around and complete it.

A day pack with a pair of grippy boots and a couple of water bottles is a good idea. The biggest hazard is the slippery (painted!) concrete steps at the beginning of the climb. Keep a hand on the rail on the way down, as the rain and moss make it worse.
