This will be our Easter run, with an Easter Egg Hunt and plenty of chocolate!
It might also be our Hari Raya celebration – to be determined …
Run-site: Hulu Tamu – the end of the road, near Hulu Tamu Waterfall
Travel Time: definitely a bit more than an hour
Date: Sunday 5th April, 2026
Hares: Dylan Waring
Co-hares: Renshaw family
Registration: 1:20 onwards
Run Starts at: 2:00 pm
This run-site is a camp-site, so we have to pay RM10 per car – please pay that at the Junior Hash registration desk when you sign in, as well as any guest fees payable.
The positive from that is that, as well as a lovely river right next to the parking area, there are toilets and shower cubicles – luxury!
Please sign in when you arrive.
- Members please remember to mark the registration sheet.
- Guests (all welcome – just turn up!) 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!
There will be a long trail, exactly 4km, and a shorter trail of 2km. The short trail is a loop, and the extension for the long trail is an out-and-back path (1km each way) to a beautiful waterfall. The trail is very easy, so there’s no reason not to go all the way to the waterfall!
On the trail, there will be some pretend (paper) Easter eggs hidden, for kids (not adults!) to find, and then swap for real chocolate when you get back to the run-site. Don’t worry – there’s plenty of chocolate for everyone!
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 cash.
