Timpohon Gate to Layang Layang

'Why am I sweating this much already?'

The trip to the summit officially starts at the Timpohon Gate (1866m) and from there it's an 8.72km march to the summit. There is a small bathroom outhouse located 700m before the Timpohon Gate, and a convenience shop at the gate itself for impulse snack and beverage purchases.

After a short, deceptive descent, the trail leads up steep stairs through the dense forest and continues winding up and up for the rest of the trip. There's a charming waterfall, Carson's Falls, beside the track shortly after the start, and the forest can be alive with birds and squirrels in the morning. Five pondok are spaced at intervals of 15 to 35 minutes between Timpohon Gate and Layang Layang and it's about three hours to the Layang Layang (2621m) rest stop. Near Pondok Lowii (2286m), the trail follows an open ridge giving great views over the valleys and up to the peaks.
