Run-site: Cherandong Waterfalls, near KKB
Travel Time: at least an hour from KL/PJ – consider stopping for lunch on the way
Date: Sunday 6th April, 2025
Hares: Marthe and Wilma (Koh family)
Registration: 1:20 onwards
Run Starts at: 2:00 pm

This is one of our favourite swimming spots, and the Koh family always set their runs here – their last one was exactly six months ago.

It’s at a campsite right next to a fun stretch of river, which can flow quite fast in the middle, although the stream had been re-shaped last time we were here, so who knows what to expect?

Please sign in when you arrive:

• Members please remember to mark the registration sheet.
• Guests fill in kids’ details (plus a phone number) on the guest sheet, and pay the guest fees of RM10 per kid.

and PLEASE remember to sign out when you get back from the trail, so we know that nobody is lost. It’s very tempting to jump straight into the stream when you get back, and sit there for three hours, but please sign out first!

As usual, we will have hot-dogs after the run, and drinks for the young and the old, so don’t forget to bring some change.

Use Waze or Google Maps to go to “Cherandong Waterfall Trailhead” – this is on tarmac, and is on Jalan Kampung Buluh Telur, 44000, Kuala Kubu Baru, Selangor.
This is on the right (East) side of the river – make sure that Waze doesn’t take you to the closest road on the other side of the river!
Then follow our KLJHHH bunny signs (hopefully!) to take the trail on the left, which stays close to the Selangor river for 1 or 2 km further to our run-site, where there is plenty of parking. This trail is a little bumpy in parts, but suitable for normal cars – just take it slowly and carefully, and you’ll have no problem.

These links take you to the end of the tarmac road, about 10 minutes before the run-site:

More detailed directions:
Tell your navigator to guide you towards Kuala Kubu Baru (or use the link above)
• At the crossroads on the old Ipoh road by the Rasa Chinese Cemetary, set your tripmeter to zero
• After almost 1km further (towards KKB), turn RIGHT to Ampang Pecah
• Continue on Jalan Ampang Pecah for 5.5km
• When your tripmeter reads about 6.5km, just before a bridge, turn RIGHT
• You should see the DAM cafe and DAM fishing pond on your right
• Drive another 2.3km
• When your tripmeter reads about 8.8km, you’ll see a parking area on your LEFT. Turn in, and then follow the driving track down to the LEFT, which soon turns right to run alongside the river
• Follow the hash signs to the run-site, at which point your trip-meter should read something close to 10km
On On!

Run-site: 2K Hotspring Campsite, near Ulu Yam / Batang Kali
Travel Time: a little over an hour
Date: Sunday 2nd March, 2025
Hares: Brown family (helped by Paddington Bear?)
Registration: 1:20 onwards
Run Starts at: 2:00 pm

Aenea Brown and her dad love settings runs at the 2K Hotspring Campsite, and we love running there – and we particularly love soaking in the pools afterwards!

It’s a very pleasant campsite, and some junior hashers are camping (with BBQ, etc.) on the Saturday night.
If you have a tent and fancy joining them, please book directly with the friendly Mr Chan – follow the link above for contact details, or just WhatsApp him on +60 19 338 4008.

For those not camping, there is a fee of RM10 per car – please find Mr Chan and pay him (with exact change if possible) after you arrive.
This fee covers parking and use of the facilities for the afternoon – very good value, because KLJHHH is also subsidising it.

Please treat the camp-site nicely – tent pegs are fine, but no digging holes or lighting fires without permission.

The hares tell us that there will be a treasure hunt (woohoo!) in the Green Cabbage Patch, as an early celebration for St Patrick’s Day – feel free to wear green.

Please sign in when you arrive:

• Members please remember to mark the registration sheet.
• Guests fill in kids’ details (plus a phone number) on the guest sheet, and pay the guest fees of RM10 per kid.

and PLEASE remember to sign out when you get back from the trail, so we know that nobody is lost. It’s very tempting to jump straight into the stream when you get back, and sit there for three hours, but please sign out first!

As usual, we will have hot-dogs after the run, and drinks for the young and the old, so don’t forget to bring some change.

Directions

These links should take you to the campsite:

Start by taking your preferred route towards Ulu Yam Baru or Batang Kali, which is approximately 35Km (about an hour) from KL or PJ, depending on your start location.

The route has a few turns through the Kampung so please use Waze or Google Maps – just type in ‘2K Hotspring campsite’ to either App, and it will take you directly to the campsite.

The last part is a good quality single track road, so normal clearance cars will have no problems.
There are 2K campsite signs when you’re close.

There is plenty of parking at the campsite but please be mindful of non-hash campers who may also be using the campsite.

On On!

Happy Chinese New Year!

Note that this run will be on the second Sunday of the month.
From March we will be back to normal – the first Sunday.

We’re back at one of our favourite locations, with a big lawn next to a beautiful river for chilling in, and even toilet/shower blocks to change in – luxury!

Run-site: Dusun Ayah Heritage camp-site at Ulu Rening, in the Genting Valley and a few km past Batang Kali
Travel Time: a little over an hour
Date: Sunday 9th February, 2025
Hares: French family

This is our Chinese New Year run, so wear red, bring ear plugs, and look for red packets (kids only!).

Admin / Logistics

This run-site is at a private camp-site, so please have RM5 ready to pay for parking.

You can also rent a tube for playing in the river, for RM10 – please make sure your kids know that you need to pay before borrowing them.

If you would like to camp there (quite cheap), please contact the site directly – you can WhatsApp to Effa on 019 926 6461. You can see more details at fb.com/effaryanstore.

If you want to stay overnight but don’t fancy camping, there are other chalets, home-stays and eco-resorts in the Ulu Rening area . They vary from cheap & simple chalets to posh chalets (e.g. Huda’s Haven), to secluded mansions that sleep 10 and have private swimming pools.

Registration (sign in and sign out)

Members please remember to mark the registration sheet. And if you missed January’s run, please remember to renew your membership – RM120 for the year.

Guests fill in kids’ details (plus a phone number) on the guest sheet, and pay the guest fees of RM10 per kid.

Renewing/new members get freebies!

For renewals, if you prefer to pay by bank transfer before the run (to CIMB account number 8007783962), please show us the payment confirmation or email it to onsec@kljhhh.org.

If you’re interested in joining (which brings multiple benefits), talk to a committee member.

EVERYONE (members and guests) must also sign out AFTER the run, so we know that nobody is lost. It’s very tempting to jump straight into the stream when you get back, and sit there for three hours, but please sign out first!

This is an old run-site that we haven’t been to for a long time – but PH3 ran there in December, next to a very pleasant little river/stream, and reminded us how good it is!

Registration & Membership Renewal

Unlike last month’s Christmas party, there is no need to pre-register for our normal runs – members & guests can just turn up and sign in at our registration desk.

• Guests must fill in kids’ details (plus a phone number) on the guest sheet, and pay the guest fees of RM10 per kid.

Renewing members get a freebie, and new members get a couple of freebies!

If you prefer to pay by bank transfer before the run (to CIMB account number 8007783962), please show us the payment confirmation or email it to onsec.kljhhh@gmail.com (our onsec@kljhhh.org account sometimes blocks emails for no reason).

If you’re interested in joining (which brings multiple benefits), talk to a committee member.

EVERYONE (members and guests) must also sign out AFTER the run, so we know that nobody is lost. It’s very tempting to jump straight into the stream when you get back, and sit there for three hours, but please sign out first!

Directions

Coordinates: 3.016235, 101.875244

The links below contain those precise coordinates, but you need to take the right fork about 100 metres before the destination that Waze or Maps direct you to.

This site can be reached via Semenyih (for most people) or via Hulu Langat (for people coming from the East side of town), so there are two ways to approach it.

If coming through Semenyih town, from the Kajang direction, turn left onto the B19 Jalan Sungai Lalang, and set your tripmeter to zero.
After 8.1km turn right and cross the bridge.
After 8.3km turn left.
Follow the road along the side of the fishing lake.
After 8.9km turn right.
After 9.4km take a fork right into the runsite.

If coming from the crossroads in Hulu Langat, head South/East on the B116 Jalan Sungei Tekali for about 10.7 km, until you hit a t-junction just before Semenyih reservoir.
Turn right onto the B19 Jalan Sungei Lalang and set your tripmeter to zero.
After 11.1km turn left and cross the bridge.
After 11.3km turn left.
Follow the road along the side of the fishing lake.
After 11.9km turn right.
After 12.4km take a fork right into the runsite.

There’s plenty of space, but please park neatly close to the other hash cars.

On On!

Can you hear sleigh bells yet? That’s right, it’s nearly Christmas, which means it’s almost time for our Christmas party!
As usual, we have it in early December, before people disappear for holidays or just become too busy – and Santa is much easier to book for the 1st of December than for the 22nd! Actually, one year we had it in January, but we try not to talk about that 😮

REGISTRATION IS CLOSED NOW!

Christmas Run and Party

This is our only run where you must pre-register – if you just turn up on the day (or if a long-lost cousin arrives unannounced), then we will try to be friendly and welcoming (as always), and will still take your fees :-), but it is quite possible that we will not be able to feed you.
It is also our only annual run where all adults attending (apart from Santa) must pay guest fees (for the meal).

Member kids still need to register, and all others need to register and pay, in advance, using this form.

For fully-paid-up members (kids), the event is free (apart from drinks!).
Guests (non-members, including lapsed members who have not paid their full 2024 subs by 30th November) are very welcome, as always.

For everyone, the cost includes the run, full Christmas meal and entertainment, and all registered kids get a freebie / goodie bag.

We are currently finalising the menu with the caterer, and will give details soon, but it will certainly be tasty and filling for hungry hashers of all shapes and sizes.

If you have problems registering, please email us.

Run-site: Hash Heritage site, TTDI / Bukit Kiara
– off Changkat Abang Haji Openg, drive in and park neatly
Travel Time: not very long
Date: Sunday 1st December, 2024
Registration: 11am (much earlier than our normal runs!)
Run Starts at: 12:30 (earlier than usual!)
Hare: Santa
Co-Hares: Elves and Reindeer (helped by Lewie Dekker)

In Waze or Google maps, search for “Senior Golfers’ Society of Malaysia”, and our entrance is immediately after that on the left. Make sure that you are going via Changkat Abang Haji Openg, not Jalan Abang Haji Openg.

You can also use these Waze or Google Maps links.

The ‘Hash Heritage House’ is 99.9% complete now (even more than last year), and already has proper toilets with running water (a luxury for hashers!), electricity for the Christmas tree lights, and a nice roof to keep us shaded and dry!

This is very different from a normal Junior Hash event, but it still includes a normal jungle run, as usual, with mud and hills and trees and maybe also monkeys.

There will be a full Christmas lunch for everyone attending (adults and kids).
Drinks will be available for sale – that’s the only extra you need to bring cash for.

There will be games and entertainment (clown, etc.), and we hope that a special guest will fly in from the North Pole.

The committee and volunteers will try to make it a perfect afternoon for everyone, but it’s up to everyone to decide how to enjoy it – usually the kids run around playing madly while half the parents sit back with a bottle of wine or just snoozing.

On On!
