Hiking with "Geng Tasek Ria - GTR" Group from Tasek lama to Tasik Serubing

I was invited by Hj Jeffry to join a trip from Tasik Lama to Tasik Serubing with his hiking group called "GENG TASEK RIANG - GTR". The meeting point was at Tasik Serubing and a bus was chartered to take the group to Tasek Lama where we started the journey. This group is an experienced hikers and this is their play area. Salute to them!

At the last quarter of the journey near Pondok Markucing, I experienced muscle cramps which made me to slow down. I was the last person in the group to arrive at Tasik Serubing.

Shout out "Assalamualaikum" to the 4 ladies whom i met at Bukit Luba. Thank you for the advise on which route to take & for visiting my blog..
