Broga Hill Sunrise Climb

Bukit Broga, also known as 'Bukit Lalang', after the local species of grass that grows abundantly here. The panoramic view of the landscape from the top of Broga Hill has been described as incredible and offering one of the best sights from such a low hill. The hike is relatively easy, taking between 30-60 minutes to reach the highest peak depending on your fitness level.

Bike Tour

With few vehicles in sight and acres of traffic-free, rubber plantation trails to ride, a bike tour through Broga is a great way to explore this town and get in touch with nature. The flat terrain makes this ride a very relaxing one.

Natural Rock Climbing/ Tubing

For a small place, there is a large variety of outdoor activities to try. Natural rock climbing is set in a very pretty surrounding of a stream and a forest and is also easily accessible. The tubing activity is carried out here.

Campfire Finale

A Campfire like no other. Have a Celebratory Dinner followed by a Fire Show alongside your regular campfire. Truly a night to remember.
