A tranquil hangout for nature lovers, a peaceful area to run. 

Locals usually park their car at the hill top ( same level with the Dam ) and walk from the gate of the dam to the inner forest reserve.The parking lot on hill top can only accommodate approximately 20 cars. Therefor, alternatively visitors can either park at the base of the hill or the Kek Lok Si temple private car park and walk up. You can also use the forest reserve trail to hike up to Penang Hill which should take you approximately 3 hours. Many hikers do this route on weekends.
