What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise Denai Tiga Puteri Trail for its accessibility, beginner-friendly nature, and rewarding city views. It's a great escape for a quick hike, offering a pleasant mix of easy paths and moderate climbs. Some find the parking limited on weekends and advise caution with footwear on steeper sections.
"This was an easy going in-n-out trail with a short steeped downhill for almost three quarters of the way. The latter is a bit of a climb at the end. There are multiple trails each maintained by different groups and they are all well taken care of. Once you reach the viewpoint, you can see the ELITE Plus highway and a cityscape background. It takes around 2 hours and a half if you go at a medium walking pace (the full return and all). We did see two snakes who thankfully did not bother about us at all, and several monkeys on the trees. It's a beginner friendly hike and it wasn't too warm even at noon."

"Open at 7.30am, pay RM2 for adult and RM1 for under 12 years at the counter. Rest room available. 3.5km hiking trail. Very easy at first 3km and a bit hard when near the peak. The view is awesome with NKVE highway."
