🧗♀️Yes, I’ve been to this summit once & it was scary to climb steel ladders near the top. Hikers can’t afford to be careless or miss a step while climbing these makeshift ladders as this hiker found out the hard way. Lucky, he didn’t fall further over the edge..

SEREMBAN: A Singaporean hiker suffered a fractured right arm in a fall while descending Gunung Datuk in Rembau near here this morning. He is believed to have fallen at a rocky area near the summit staircase & broke his arm.
🧑🚒Kota fire and rescue station chief Asnizam Kamberon said the victim, aged 52, was among 11 hikers taking part in a climb to the summit of Gunung Datuk, accompanied by two guides.
⛑️He said the rescue team hiked to the victim’s location, about 2km from the foot of the mountain, and brought him down on a stretcher.
⛰️Gunung Datuk, which rises to a height of about 885m (2,900ft), has a peak defined by a cluster of massive granite boulders. Hikers must climb a series of near-vertical steel ladders anchored directly into the rock.
Local folklore say a large depression on one of the highest boulders bears the footprint of the legendary Malay warrior Hang Tuah, who was reputed to be able to leap from mountain to mountain.
