Our Experience

Pengarang Cycling - Johore,Malaysia

Pengarang Cycling Photos -> Click Here!

Located at the south-eastern tip of Johore state, is a sleepy seaside town of Pengarang. Accessible from Singapore’s Changi Point Jetty, the Pengarang town is a 50 mins bum-boat ride away. Upon arrival, Cycling is breezy & loaded with lots of sunshine & sea breeze as you make the coastal run towards the town. Along the way, one will pass by the Malaysian countryside & can make occasional stops along the route to get refreshments. The estimated cycling time from the jetty to the town is an hour and one can definitely expect to be amazed by the beautiful scenery.

For many of us, this is the first time we are setting out on a journey on a bike so far away from home. Normally, we would only be cycling around Singapore and one could almost immediately guess where. Because other than the East Coast Park and Pulau Ubin, where else can we cycle in Singapore that will offer something different? But, we can definitely assure you that experience over at Pengarang will be completely different from what you will experience in Singapore. This is truly an unforgettable escape from the Urban Jungle of Singapore to the beautiful Country Side.

Gunung Stong Falls Hiking Expedition - Kelantan,Malaysia

Gunung Stong is a highland located in Kelantan, Malaysia. It towers at 1422m above sea level and is surrounded by limestone caves which make really good a visit, before trekking up. An astonishing waterfall cascading down from the limestone cover made the view looked so magical. Gunung Stong is situated at the end of Malaysia’s massive Titiwangsa mountain range and its main attraction is her seven tier Stong waterfall, reputated to be the highest in Southeast Asia with a staggering height of 990M.

For this trip, we decided to take an overnight train because one of the ways to reach Gunung Stong is via the KTM train from Johore Bahru station to Dabong Station, which will take 13 hours. Once we reach there, we met up with our guide who was packed with all sort of information you will want to know about Gunung Stong and about hiking as a whole. I think none of us will ever forget the magical view of the limestone enclaves and the waterfall. Throughout the trip, one would not only feast upon the eyes, but will also get to experience new things like caving and standing on top of a waterfall. This are stunts, where one can truly be proud of when they come back to Singapore and share with their friends.

Endau Rompin Falls Hiking Expedition- Johore,Malaysia

Endau Rompin National Park is second largest national park in Peninsular Malaysia after Taman Negara. It is an area south of Pahang and northeast of Johor. The park houses one of the oldest tropical rainforest complexes in the world and features rock formations some 248 million years old. Apart from that, the park contains the largest remaining population of the threatened Sumatran rhinoceros species on the Malay Peninsula. Gunung Besar which is the second highest in Johor is also located in the park.

The park takes it name from the Endau and Rompin rivers that flow through the park. Other rivers that flow through the parks are Segamat, Selai and Jasin.

We would access the park via the Selai Entrance which is near the Johor side, & enter via 4WDs.There are 4 main waterfalls in the park, but which are stunning and tranquil despite the rapid development of the area. A day’s trek should be able to cover all the 4 waterfalls, & appreciating the flora of the park along the way.

Gunung Datuk - Negri Sembilan,Malaysia

Situated at the end of the Titiwangsa mountain range and towering at 2900 feet above sea level, this mountain is truly a place not to be missed by nature lovers and adventure seekers. The majority of the trek is through lush jungles and vegetations, but one is rewarded at the summit with a breath-taking 360 degrees view of the entire state. The huge boulders at the summit sweeten the deal further by letting one lie on it & enjoy the tropical sunshine and breeze.

Southern Island Kayaking Expedition 07/08 - Pulau Hantu,Singapore

Pulau Hantu Besar or “ghost island” is one of the few southern islands that are open to public access. To get there, only chartered boats from Marina Pier are available. Upon arrival, users will be wow by the magnificent view of the sea and lovely island breeze. The island is largely inhabitated but boasts essential toilet and showering facilities; BBQ pits and huts are available as well to compliment the trip. Users are treated to nice tendering washes of the waves in the surrounding lagoons and can even enjoy fishing and coral viewing when the tides are low.

Round Island Kayaking Expedition 2008 - Singapore
Ever thought of kayaking around the perimeters of the Singapore coastline? That is approximately 120km of water to manoeuvre. Ever thought of looking a the tiny dot of the world map from a different perspective & see landmarks that one have never seen before?

We started our trip from SP Adventurers base at Poly Marina, West coast park and headed to Raffles Marina in Tuas for day1. Pitched up and carted our cargo to sembawang park for night and headed to East Coast Park for day2, with stopover at Changi Beach. (This was the most challenging day!) Day3, was the home run from ECP back to Poly Marina, cruising by the flyer, sentosa and Port of Singapore.

Southern Island Kayaking Expedition 2009 - Sisters Island, Singapore
A leisure weekend out in the sun and the seas definitely makes good a trip to clear the mind.

This sisters island kayaking trip does make good that visit, good weather, cool tropical breeze. Plus enjoying the sights of passing container vessels the height of your HDB en route and coming face to face with wild monkeys on the island!

Ohh Boy..
Berkelah Falls Trekking Trip 09 - Kuantan, Malaysia

Berkelah meaning “Picnic” is located 50km out of Kuantan in the Berkelah forest reserve. The Berkelah falls is a series of cascading waterfalls with its highest one at 100m in height. One can indulge in natural jacuzzi and hydrotheraphy on site.

The trek is relatively easy going and is a place suitable for people for all ages. The view from the top and the nature’s massage are equally tempting a place to visit.
