Gombak Selangor Quartz Ridge

Gombak Selangor Quartz Ridge (On tentative list)

Gombak Selangor Quartz Ridge by Zoë Sheng

The ridge, or dragon spines as they seem to call it locally, is easily seen from the highway north of KL. Getting closer to it, as the other review already points out, is a little odd. There is a place to stop and hike up if not closed for...ever? There was even a sign of an annual marathon of sorts but I suppose the weather killed off any chance of hiking around the area for the foreseeable future. My visit was in June 2017. KL's attempt to have a WHS in the capital's area? The FRIM place is a little laughable as well. I kind of doubt I would visit this place if it opened up a proper trail, add a real parking area, have a SIGN posted for driving directions as well as actually explaining better what we are here to see, maybe even a website or something. I say "doubt" rather than "never" because the closeness of it to the capital means I might do this one day if I have a stopover or something, like 2027? Normally I'm into places off the beaten track so it could be worth a look if they can guarantee me the trail is open.
