Day 2 – Kluang to Kukup
We arranged with one of the cab drivers who sent us back yesterday to pick us up this morning to Gunung Lambak. We bought some breakfast at the entrance of Gunung Lambak.

With this second hike of Gunung Lambak, I came to realise that the routes up Gunung Lambak are in the shape of the figure 8. At the bottom of the mountain, there are two ways up to the midpoint near a pavilion. The path on the left (facing the mountain) nearer to the resorts is easier than the path on the right. Then from the pavilion, there are another two routes up to the summit. The path on the left (facing the mountain) is a steeper hike than the path on the right which passes through a “Selamat Datang Ke Gunung Lambak” gate.

Go straight until you hit a cross junction and take the left turn. Continue straight all the way to the summit.

After the good morning workout, twe took the same cabs back to the hotel to wash up and check out.
Our driver arrived at the appointed time and drove us to Kukup, not before stopping by Pontian town for lunch.

With four rooms of various sizes, the place can easily accomodate 20 people.

There are only squat toilets. What goes through the hole goes directly to the sea. Seems better to do your business during high tide.
