Broga Hills

A place well described by many many other bloggers. A place always mentioned by friends and family. A hill.


WTF I see the word "hill" also I got goosebumps already. I never like hiking or climbing hills. But everyone keeps saying Broga hill is very beautiful, and that its a must-go place. And even 80 year old nai-nai can climb also. So when daddy suggest climbing Broga hill my brain was torned into two decisions. To follow, or not? 


In the end also I followed cos Ven is coming along with his DSLR so mean we'll get a lot of chio pictures. 

Ven's very first try at Ulead picture editting. 

Climbing Broga hill is no fun alright. First we need to wake up at the wee hours of the morning, drag ourselves out of bed just to plonk ourselves into the car and continue sleeping while poor daddy have to drive roughly an hour down south to Semenyih.

By the time we were there, there were amazingly a lot of cars parked at the foot of the hill and AMAZINGLY a lot of people everywhere we go. The climb uphill was so so so slow because of the crowd. And the wind was so strong that those idiots polluting the fresh air with cigarette scent was actually puffing their cancerous lung filled tobacco air in my direction. *cough cough*

View on the 1st peak

Broga have four peaks. When we reached the 1st peak it was still dark. We were all waiting for the sun to rise so that we can catch a pretty picture of the horizon. But meh, the clouds were too packed that day that the sky brightened with no indication of the rising sun. By the time we knew it the sun was already above our heads. 

By the time we reached the 2nd peak, we were in already broad day light. That is when we noticed the Lalangs. Broga hill is full of Lalangs. The entire place is so lalang-fied that everything looks very pretty. Like being in a paddy field. Didn't know the lalangs we hate so much can also create scenic picture.

Lalangs are wierd beings. From an angle they all look white and fresh, from another angle they all look brown and unhealthy. So of course we kept hogging the white and fresh angle!

When we finally reached the 4th peak, we get to snap a memorial picture of this!

Ahahaha. Okay 400m is major achievement for me okay. Although I was more annoyed about the mosquitoes and the smoking idiots instead of feeling tired and sweaty. But hey, my calves ached the next day. Good work out.

So do visit Broga for a lalang-fied experience if you want too. Just google "broga" and you'll get tons of instructions teaching you how to get there. That's what my daddy did.
