Travel Time: allow 70 – 90 minutes, depending on where you start from
Date: Sunday 7th May, 2023

Co-Hares: TBD
Registration: 1:00 onwards – PLEASE REGISTER IN ADVANCE, using
Run Starts at: 1:30 pm
NOTE: The run start time has changed to 1:30pm, to ensure we’re all back in time for the big meal. If you have made plans that mean you can’t make it by then, no worries – you can go into the trail late.
Also, if you have your own plastic plates/bowls/forks/spoons, please bring them, to help reduce the number of disposable plates/spoons that will be thrown away at the end of the day – go GREEN. If you can bring your own camping tables/chairs, even better, although we have a couple of ‘pondoks’ by the river and there are some big rocks to sit on!
The hares have picked the perfect spot – one we enjoyed a few times last year, with a great river to play in.
They’ve also been checking their recipe books and looking for intrepid caterers who are willing to set up in a camp-site.
Why? Because there will be no hotdogs this month, because we are having a Hari Raya banquet instead.
If you haven’t received an email about it, or seen our post on facebook, then we’ll explain it here:
The Junior Hash will be having a feast with all of the must-have ingredients for a Hari Raya Banquet: rendang, satay, ketupat, nasi impit, grilled lamb, cucuk udang, etc.
Right now (before the end of April) we need to know numbers for catering.
So all Junior Hash families (members or guests) should have filled in this simple online form before the end of April.
The cost for the feast is:
- RM 25 each for guest (non-member) kids (this includes the normal RM 10 guest fee)
- RM 25 each for all adults
- free for member kids who have paid their 2023 subscription fees
For guest kids, it’s almost the same cost as they would usually pay for the guest fees and one hotdog and a soft drink, so it really is a bargain for such a feast.
The form has details of the KL Junior Hash bank account.
If any members haven’t paid their 2023 subs yet, you’d better pay them online or bring them to the run!!!
So, many of us have two things to remember to fill in online before the end of April – this form, and our tax returns!
If you have any problems with the form, please chat with us via our Facebook page, fb.com/kljhhh
If you have any problems with your tax return, feel free to ask some of the kids on the hash – I’m sure they understand it all perfectly 🙂
There will also be cold drinks available for purchase, as usual, so please remember to bring some pocket money.
You’ll also need a change of clothes, as you will get wet!
PLEASE remember to register BEFORE the run, at our registration desk:
- Members just mark the registration sheet
- guests who have registered/paid in advance just mark the pre-printed guest sheet
- unregistered guests must fill in kids’ details (plus a phone number) on the guest sheet
EVERYONE (members and guests) must also sign out AFTER the run, so we know that nobody is lost.
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 – just take it slowly and carefully, and you’ll have no problem.
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 selamat berbuka puasa!
