Top of Maxwell Hill

After 1 hour of land rover ride, we reached the top of Maxwell Hill. It was not as cold as I thought, but it was windy :-)

Viji akka was busy talking on the phone , maybe she was talking about shifting to the top permenantly from Penang.

These 'botak' twin trees really attracted me alot

Maxwell Hill Land Rover Ride

2 weeks ago, I went to Maxwell Hill a.k.a Bukit Larut in Taiping with my working mates. Taiping is just 30 minutes drive from my place and that was the time I went to the hill. Prasath joined us from KL , thanks man.

These powerful Land Rovers will bring you up to the hill. It cost RM 6 per trip.

About Maxwell Hill ..alternatively you can read about it here

Me with Prasath

The road was very narrow, lots of sharp turns, , U turns but, the driver drove very fast. it was really fun !! I really loved it!!

This is the drivers way of giving way to another Jeep.
