Continuing from New visit to the beach of Bukit Keluang.
While Bukit Keluang is famous for its beach and seaside caverns the name itself refers to a hill.
Bukit Keluang means hill of (Bukit) giant bats (Keluang). I have never seen the bats but the hill is very prominent giving and imposing sight besides the beach.
For as long as I can remember the main attraction has always been the beach and seaside caves. It was only since about a year ago or so the hill itself became an attraction.
This was after a path connecting one end of hill on to the summit and the other end of hill was opened to public.
So I decided to check it out despite arriving late. Thank God I came across two other hikers for company...
It's just they were young, probably less than half my age. So they could climb faster and disappeared out of sight while I acknowledged the fact that being 51 years old and not so fit it was good enough that I could maintain a constant pace without running out of breath.
Soon I arrived at what seemed like a summit.
This pictures were taken around 7.05 pm. As it turned out there was still some distance to climb up before going down the other side.
