GUNUNG DATUK, NEGERI SEMBILAN, MALAYSIA

Located in Rembau, Negeri Sembilan, about 1½ hours from Kuala Lumpur. Gunung Datuk/Mount Datuk with a height of 870m/2900ft.. errr.... is there any minimum height to be categorize as a gunung/mountain?

At a moderate pace, it tooks around 2½ hours to reach the peak, and this is the beautiful part of it. You can have a 360 degrees view without trees blocking the view, but you must be careful as the wind here is very strong..

Readers must know that the summit of Mount Datuk was once used by Dato' Perpateh Nan Sebatang to gather Customs Leaders to announce the future Clan Chief in 1372.
