Only open for half day. I take bolt from mrt Kota Damansara. a great place to hike. multiple routes available. if you want to warm up, can take the Salleh Trail and continue with the Petaling Trail per entry is RM2 for adult cooling air, fresh, and scenic ample of parking Toilet provided at entry.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families introducing children to hiking who can manage a 3km trail with one steep rope-assisted climb. The well-marked paths remove navigation stress and the rewarding summit view motivates kids to push through. Arrive by 07:30 on weekends to secure a parking spot — this is the single biggest logistical constraint.

I went with my family. We took the Peak trail. It was intermediate level for as I rarely hike. We reached there 7.30am. It is not easy to find car park as it has limited space. I suggest to go early. Overall I enjoyed it so much. Will come back again.

This is a small but nice hiking area. The hike to the top of the hill is rewarding with good views. While most of the hike is fairly flat, there is a section which is steep. Ropes are provided to help hikers navigate the steep section.

Not many place to hike in Klang Valley - this is one of them. No Malim required, just pay rm2 at the entrance. The trails are clearly marked and not too difficult. Suitable for 1st time hikers. Good place to train for trail runners.

Overview

Kota Damansara Community Forest Reserve offers a popular 3km return trail to Tiga Denali peak, taking roughly one hour at a relaxed pace. The path is clearly marked throughout, with ropes installed at the steepest section to assist hikers. Multiple trail options exist — Salleh Trail is gentler for warm-ups, as Peak Trail is the main challenge. Cool forest air and fresh surroundings make for a refreshing urban hike. Parking spaces are very sparse and fill early on weekends.
