<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>TRAIL</strong></span></h3>
<p>To get to the actual trail head, walk into the eco resort and follow till the end of the tar road, Tapak Perkhemahan Zon 6, about 1.9km away from the entrance. The trail to climb Bukit Chenuang <span style="text-decoration: underline;">is on your left, about 10 meters <strong>in front of the toilet</strong></span> (the trail entrance is partially hidden by overgrowth). <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Do not</span> take the trail behind the toilet (trail goes up steeply) or cross the river (lead to a private durian farm).</p>
<p>After getting on the right trail (you should see some red-white tape markers along the way), you will first cross a few stream, and subsequently the climb begins. As the trail is less actively climbed, the terrian is very rugged. The trail is mainly narrow, with branches, bamboos and obstacle blocking the trail. You will need to crawl under fallen bamboo trees, avoid leeches and keep away from sharp thorns. The hike becomes harder as you go higher. Steep slope are to be expected. The summit, at 850 meters tall is marked by a Beirut. The summit has no view as it is covered by trees. The hike will take approximately 2.5 hours up and 1.5 hours down. </p>
