We’ll be celebrating Chinese New Year, so wear red, and those with sensitive hearing can bring earplugs in case there are some fire-crackers 🙂
The Cherandong Waterfall area is a beautiful nature area near KKB, and has waterfalls, white-water streams and a small dam. We will be starting a little beyond the Cherandong Waterfall Trailhead, right next to the top part of the Selangor river.
This run-site is very close to ones we used a couple of times last year, but please pay attention to the directions.
There will be hotdogs and cold drinks, and more, so it’s going to be a fun afternoon for the whole family – remember to bring some pocket money and a change of clothes.
Also remember that it’s time for MEMBERS to renew their membership (still RM100 for the year), and a good time for new junior hashers to join (RM100 for the year, plus RM10 one-time joining fee).
As usual, it’s RM10 for guests.
Everyone is welcome, and all kids must sign in when they arrive, and sign out when they finish the trail.
Directions
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 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 enough parking as long as we are considerate. This trail is a little bumpy in parts, but suitable for normal cars.
The run-site is private, but the hares have handled any payments required so you don’t have to!
More detailed directions:
- 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 plantation road on the LEFT, which soon runs 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, and Gong Xi Fa Cai to all the bunnies out there!
