3 Beginner-friendly hiking trails in Malaysia to Kickstart your outdoor journey

If you’ve been looking for a fresh way to spend your weekends, hiking is a great start. Not only does it get you closer to nature, but it also keeps your body active and your mind refreshed. For beginners, Malaysia has plenty of easy trails that combine a touch of adventure with stunning views. The best part? You don’t need to be super fit to enjoy them.

This list was inspired by Outdoor Expo’s newsletter, which recently featured beginner-friendly trails. Here, we’ve given it a sustainable twist to show how you can make your hikes greener with Stojo Malaysia.

2. Bukit Batu Putih, Port Dickson
