Have you experienced before a different kind of jungle trekking where you can move from a tree to another tree without touching the ground? If you love adventure and never have such experience like a Tarzan moving from a tree to another tree by swinging, gliding, walking, clambering and climbing, then you cannot miss this opportunities which is currently available in Malaysia - the Skytrex Adventure!
Last Saturday, a group of us with 12 persons (4 guys, 8 gals) were challenging ourselves with this Skytrex Adventure which is located in Taman Pertanian, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. 11 of us successfully to complete the whole adventure which took about 2 hours and 1 of us used the chicken exit at the half way to escape. The fee for an Adult is RM35 per pax. We got 10% discount as our group had more than 10 pax. Maximum number of pax allowed in a group is 50 pax. The fee including the locker and the safety equipment rental, except gloves which cost RM1 per pair.
The challenge that we experienced is called 'Big Thrill'. It has 23 trails from easy to diffulty level with the maximum height 17m from the ground. The trails including flying fox, zig-zagging, 'The Earthquake', 'Happy Hopper', etc. The flying fox is the most fun and exciting part. The whole challenge requires usage of both hands to hold on the pully and cables when walking, swinging, gliding and clambering. Luckily we rented the gloves; if not, most of us might have bruises on hands after finishing the challenge. This high rope course is very safe. It really helped to overcome our fear of heights.
After completed of our mission, we drove to Klang to eat Bak Kut Teh. All of us were enjoying the challenge very much. Thanks Alain, Liu Qiang, Winnie, Theresa, Fion and Coreen for getting friends and family to join this challenge and making it an unforgetful adventure trip to everyone. :)
