Gunung Pulai is about the nearest mountain in Peninsular Malaysia which one can visit from Singapore. Standing at just 600m tall with a tarmac road trail, it’s an easy 3 hours workout.

Gunung Pulai
On a restless Saturday morning, I arranged to meet my Malaysian friend at his Johor home for a hike up Gunung Pulai.
But before that, we drove to a nearby food center for breakfast.

Along the way to the mountain, I learnt about the cost savings and practicalities of a car converted to use natural gas. Apparently, my friend used to work as a NGV salesman.

We couldn’t really continue to the summit as there is a military base so that’s the end of the one-way 5km hike.
