The 7 Largest Hiking Trail in Penang

Localbiz Cover

Excellent viewpoints of multiple angles of Penang Island. Could do with a little more signage, but overall a relaxing meditative and short hiking trail with an outdoor badminton court and several rest stops along the way.

Bring insect repellant. Plenty of shade so not to hot though.

Easy trail for hiking, with nice view on top.

Recently there is construction on the road there, thus the old hiking entrance is changed. May walk further abit into the road and you shall able to found the “Bukit Hijau” road sign for the new hiking entrance.

The hiking trail is abit slippery after rain, take note and be careful.

Quite an easy hike, can reach the peak within 30 minutes and you will be rewarded with nice sceneries from ~3 viewing spots.

Bukit Hijau (directly translated as Green Hill) is also known as Fish Head Hill as you will pass by a big rock that shaped like a fish head from certain angle. At the middle and peak, there are also a flat space where you can play badminton. During certain time of the day, there could be so dogs at the peak but they are *usually* not aggressive.

There few paths leading to different hills. But for Bukit Hijau, when goes up and back have to be same road, else, you will end up to different location, which you might have to take grab back to where you parked or economy way, walk back ?. For the trail, quite slippery, have to be more careful on your own steps though there is available of rope at some challenging points. ? Enjoyed the hiking, as end with mesmerising view and precious group photos with the gang.

    Starting point at the archway is not too far from the open space car park behind the Lower Station. Just follow the other hikers, this is a popular trail to Penang Hill. Staircases all the way up until middle station. Steps are not uniform. Pass by Claremont and Viaduct stations, too. Some parts in jungle after Claremont Station.

    The track is direct and the extremely steep until the middle station. Pack sufficient water and empty your bladder before you hike.
