Due to various circumstances, I proposed to the team to hike Saga hill on Wesak Day Public Holiday.
Looking at the map, our initial plan is as below
Taman Saga - Saga Hill Top - Station 6 - Station 5 - Waterfall - Saga Hill Top via trek D - Taman Saga
However, after numerous attempt to ask around, nobody seems to be able to let us know how to go back to Taman Saga without going back to Station 6, so we ended up following the crowd and ended up going back to Saga Hill Top the way we came. After further asking around, we decided on trying Trek A for our downhill route which proof to be a wise decision as the rain started when we started our descent and later on became a downpour which would have made Trek B too slippery for descent. Trek A however are series of endless steps.
We were wet, tired and hungry by the time we got out and settled on the first restaurant we could find.
