Top Adventures in Malaysia
Climb Up to Malaysia's Batu Caves
The Batu Caves which are just north of Kuala Lumpur are reachable by the subway train. A ticket is just 2MR and you will need to get a hold of a map to see which train you need to take on the Red Line. The train drops you off right at the caves wh...
Pangkor Island, Malaysia

Rock Climb at Bukit Keteri
Drive through a large parking lot to access a dirt road leading right up to the mountains. Walk toward the mountains, and you're faced with two trails, one heading left and one heading right.Take the trail on your right to head to the "slab" area ...
