Check it out ! If you are bored with Ulu Yam area (about 90% of the runs are up north), or sick of traveling to Semenyih/Ulu Langat area(about 5% are down south), this run site may be worth your time and effort (says the hare!). No climbing, right, Raymond??

1. Find your way to Karak Highway and head towards Kuantan.
2. Keep LEFT after the tunnel, look for turnoff signpost Janda Baik/Genting Sempah.

6. At +-7.0 km, T-junction, go straight. (3rd Hash sign)
7. At +-11.0 km, keep RIGHT. ILMU at right (4th Hash sign)
8. At +-11.9 km, turn RIGHT before bridge (5th Hash sign)
9. At +- 12.4 km, T=junction, go straight. (6th Hash sign)
10. At +-14.8 km, park carefully and tightly, very narrow laterite road, keep to one side only.
HashCar: Red Toyota Corolla (a dilapidated old clunker deemed an old and faithful car)

Garden View Restaurant, Bukit Tinggi (hares promises lots of fresh veggies and kampong chicken):
1. 0 your tripmeter. Drive back to Bentong Road.

Torchlight Run.

Don't miss this highlight (pun intended) of the year. Running in the dark once a year is a tradition at PH3. The run is flagged off as soon as its dark and you only need a fully charged torchlight to participate. Watching all those little lights twinkling among the trees going up and down the hills is a sight not to be missed. The on site makan, goofy theatrical entertainment and hash acts thereafter make for a fun filled evening in great company. Tell your friends and come party under the stars with us ! See note about fees below.

Time to get your batteries charged or buy a new torchlight!
