One of the best activities to do here in Brunei is to go hiking. There are a lot of places to hike here and it is quite popular with the locals here who go hiking all the time. Hiking on a hill in Brunei can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience for nature enthusiasts. Along these trails, you'll be greeted with birds chirping, lots of plants, and many more.

Beautiful view of the sunset

As the sun sets, the skies turn purplish pink. Then the best thing is that you are in a forest. It's important to get some sunblock as it is quite hot at the moment with not much rainfall. Some of the forests have been burning.

The walk up

Walk up this slope and slowly you'll get to the main entrance to the forest trails. This is the Lumut forest. It's quite dense, so make sure to get your GPS ready unless you already know the paths well.

The walk down

Usually, my mom-in-law accompanies us to hike. She's already in her mid-sixties but with an energy level that beats most young people. This is no joke. She wakes up super early every day and starts doing house chores. Then goes to the garden does gardening, and goes hiking. There was a time when she had this fitness watch to count the number of steps she took a day and it was astounding. 25 000 steps in a day. Most people barely even finish 10K.

Rest areas

Throughout the hike, you can find these resting stations around. However, there are no toilets around.

The cute white dog

Man's best friend followed us throughout the whole trail.

Nest

Ant nests having unique shapes can be seen around. There are a couple of these around.

Lots of fresh air. The best getaway is this. We usually spend a lot of our time in an enclosed space, so why not, just get out and have a walk and be one with nature?

There are multiple routes to walk so you can just try them out. Pick the best ones. There are also many mountain bikers here.

The beautiful forest.

Some farms can be seen on the lower grounds.

A lot of these products goes to the local markets. Brunei has lots of farms like these that supply vegetables and fruits to the local markets at a cheap price. Which is great.

Bullet hill

This hill is known as the bullet hill.

After about an hour of walking and hiking, we were heading out. It was time to go home. I could feel my shirt drenched in sweat. I usually bring a spare shirt to change.

Hope that you enjoy looking at the pictures. Do visit Brunei and hike these trails. Health is wealth. We have to get out once in a while and breath in some fresh air. Lowers stress as well as getting oxygen for our system.
