Broga Hill

5:00 AM Posted by Mike Phui Vui Loong


A hill that located at Semenyih town, between border of Selangor and Negeri Sembilan.


The duration from Setapak to the hill is around 50 minutes. On the day, our team depart at 4a.m. from Setapak. The hill is easily recognized by the landmarks around which is Nottingham University and the Rabbit Fun Land.




Although it was only 5a.m. in the morning, there's crowd along whole way of the hill. Torchlight is the equipment that must be prepared. Sunrise at the hill is about 5.55a.m.


Amount of crowd at 5a.m. can judge by the torchlight

There are total 4 peaks for Broga Hill. However, the viewpoint of the sunrise wasn't the last peak but the second peak. If the hill wasn't congested by people, approximately 45 minutes is needed to reach the last peak. There's an interesting scene as we saw someone cooking with Bunsen burner there for almost an hour.

The view of the hill on the day was not as glorious as expected due to the rain before sunrise which cause the cogongrass wet. Moreover, the weather was cloudy.

Thus, only manage to capture a few nice pictures when going downhill.

Lastly, some advise for people who interested to go this hill are try not to go on weekend, please check the weather forecast if you are aiming to view the sunrise as well as equip with torchlight if going at midnight.
