Shady forest loops behind the housing estates, with a longer climb to Tiga Puteri peak.

Getting there
About 30–40 minutes' drive from central KL via the SPRINT or the LDP. The trailhead is on Jalan Merbah 10/1 in Section 10. By train, take the MRT Kajang Line to Kota Damansara, then a short Grab ride.

Residents campaigned to save this patch of lowland forest behind Kota Damansara, and it's now one of the busiest weekend trails in PJ. There are short, shady loops for a first jungle walk and a longer, steeper route up to Tiga Puteri peak for those who want to earn their breakfast.

Things to do

  1. Scouts and Temuan trailsThe usual first loop: shaded, well marked and about an hour for both.Map ↗
  2. Harmoni, Sahabat and SerenityThe intermediate trails add distance and a few more climbs if the first loop felt short.Map ↗
  3. Denai Tiga PuteriThe advanced route via Sahabat and Unity to a peak with views back over PJ. Allow a few hours.Map ↗

Good to know

  • Parking at the trailhead is scarce. Park at the nearby shoplots and walk 10–15 minutes in.
  • There's no water on the trails, so carry your own, especially for Tiga Puteri.
  • Sign in at the entrance and load the society's trail map on your phone. The nine trails cross each other a lot.
