The Bung Jagoi Heritage Centre Hike and the Bung Tesen Peak Viewpoint

With just around 320 meters above sea level, the Bung Jagoi it's one of the most family friendly trail available in Kuching. The trail is super easy to hike, and suitable for children and old people, a good weekend gateway. Not to forget it also has a very nice viewpoint on the summit peak. 
And if hiking is not your cup of tea, you can also bring your family to the waterfall, just a few mins hike at the base of the mountain. 

There is a big parking space for your car, a few ringgit per car.

This is a restaurant, and we paid our entrance fees here. They also offer daily tour package, which includes food. 
A friend of mine bring his 70+ years old mother and two young children to hike together, and impressively she made it to the summit. 



A waterfall trail just below the mountain. Good for children, as I know my children like to play in the water more than hiking to the summit. 

Very clear water from the mountain.

Villages use to stay here, but now most of them moved away. And converted some of their houses to local homestay

Continue on to the peak


So the summit peak is called Bung Tesen

A very easy and relaxing hike, you don't even need to break a sweat.

Enjoying the breaktaking panoramic view, further away will be the village like Kampung Serasot, Skibang, and the mountain range part of it will be the Bung Beratak at the right, and Gunung Udan (according to multiple maps which I can get online)
