It’s the start of a new year and the Janes are back in action after dusting off their hiking boots. The plan was for an easy walk in FRIM to accommodate some new-comers and old veterans nursing old injuries. Unfortunately, we missed the memo that Rover trail will be closed indefinitely due to vandalism. I mean, really? If you’re newbieContinue reading “The Jungle Janes Return to FRIM”

Hiking – Another All-Round Sport Good for the Whole Body and Mind
When it comes to anything that I do, I have a tendency to look for the biggest bang for my buck because time is a precious commodity I do not have a lot of so I like to make the most of what I have. When it comes to working out, hiking is another great all-round workout thatContinue reading “Hiking – Another All-Round Sport Good for the Whole Body and Mind”
Wangsa Maju Walking Trail
Very near Wangsa Walk in Wangsa Maju, there is an asphalt walking trail with a very steep beginning that I have been meaning to try out for months.

If you’re looking for easily accessible hiking trails that won’t require you to drive miles to get to, here’s anotherContinue reading “Jungle School for Adults: An Encounter with Bukit Saga”
Bukit Gasing – the All-Natural StairMaster…
Who needs a StairMaster when you can do the real thing in the great outdoors? I have been meaning to take the boys to Bukit Gasing for a hike to the old suspension bridge for a while now but we haven’t quite made it there yet. One morning, on the spur of the moment, I decided toContinue reading “Bukit Gasing – the All-Natural StairMaster…”
