- (15)·Hard·2.0 miThis is a challenging walk to the summit of Mount Penang. Although a short hike, it is quite challenging, with plenty of sharp inclines and a poorly marked track. At the summit, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking 360-degree views. The walk begins at Tugalong Road and slowly ascends towards the scenic summit of Mount Penang. Once you reach the top, take some time to appreciate the tranquil atmosphere and marvel at the astonishing views before heading back. Keep an eye out for local birdlife...
