Up to Hill No. 3
Sunday, June 1st, 2008Today is Sunday and we decided to hike up to Hill No. 3 from Youth Park. Why is it called No. 3? I don’t know but the highest is No. 5. I thought it would be easy way up since I see children hiking up the trail as well. The first 10 minutes was rather easy - there are 2 ways up at different intervals, you can either go up the steps which are rather steep but takes shorter time or you can take a longer route. It took us 30 minutes to get to No. 3 but it was rather exhausting. Thank goodness I’ve been having cardio exercise every Wednesday which I’m sure helped quite a lot. At No. 3 there are 2 ready pots of tea and water and a big can of biscuits. I hear that there is even char bee hoon (fried noodles) at No. 5. All these are free for hikers and you can even contribute to the beverage fund if you like. You can sip a cup of tea and enjoy the clear view of downtown Pulau Tikus.
