Weekend short trip #2: FRIM, Selayang



Hihi!

Finally I have some time to update about my second weekend getaway. I don't even think I can call it a getaway since we actually just went to exercise! Oh well, just another short day trip to unwind from the busy work life.

Road to FRIM: About 30 minutes from KL 
FRIM is a forest reserve in the state of Selangor. There are some nice walking trails and mini waterfalls/ streams for visitors to picnic. There is also a canopy walk but unfortunately at the time we visited the canopy walk was closed for maintenance.

Opening hours:
Monday - Thursday 8.00 am - 1.00 2.00 pm - 4.30 pm
Friday 8.00 am - 12.15 pm, 2.45 pm - 4.30 pm


Entrance fee to FRIM RM5 (for Malaysian Citizens RM1, Mountain Bike RM2, Car RM5)



The lush greenery just gives me a sense of calmness
Walking along the trail, great for exercising!
And oh yes, one of the things we did other than walking on the trail and soaking our feet in cool, clear streams is riding the tandem bike! But I must say it is really difficult especially when we wanted to get up the slopes.... my legs went jelly after cycling. We rented it for 1 hr, I think it was around RM16(?), but it wasn't very expensive. Trust me one hour is more than enough dose of exercise for a city girl like me.

The scenery we got to see after sweating to get up the slopes!

So if you want to escape the city and breathe in some fresh air, why not do it locally and head to FRIM in Kepong!
