Itinerary description
At some point wikiloc stopped, my fitbit recorded 8km+. I don't know why Wikiloc fails me all the time😆.
My first hiking solo. I chose this as i was familiar with the parking area and not far from the main road and the summit has a restaurant, so it' not far from civilazation and has a clear trail. I Started the hike at 4:40 am, still dark so i got no time to take much photos while ascending. A lot of stairs to pass in rafisah side going up which is a challenge for the knees, hamstring, glutes and calves. Going down form the rafisah dam summit was a little bit of relief after the endless climb but it's all ascend again going to Suhub. I reached at 5:55 am. Mr sun nor the clouds which i was hopeful to walk above was shy to show up that day. Walked around the rest area while staffs are busy starting their day, twice then i proceed to descend the same way. Not as fast as going up as I was busy taking photos and videos this time.
For me, this was the best choice for my first solo hike.
