It takes about 45 minutes to walk and about 20 minutes to cycle the trail. Join a guided walk! Why not join a guided walk instead of going on your own? You will see more and have a safe visit. During a public walk, the barricades are opened and vans will drop you off at Punai Hut, a 3-minute walk from Chek Jawa. |
