Mount Belumut

Mount Belumut (Malay: Gunung Belumut), standing at 1,010 metres (3,314 ft), is a mountain located in Kluang District, Johor, Malaysia. For the average climber, the climb to the summit takes 4 to 6 hours and the return to the foot (by the same route) takes 3 to 4 hours.

Before reaching the summit of Gunung Belumut, climbers will first pass by a 'false summit', where overnight camping is possible in fair weather conditions. From the 'false summit', it's about half-an-hour's trek to the summit. A huge boulder, named the Crown Rock, sits on the summit. The boulder got its name because it looks like a giant crown.^[1]

Due to its popularity, some parts of the trail have been badly eroded by tourist. The campsite is also a bit dirty, as inconsiderate climbers has left the litter behind.

To get to Gunung Belumut, one has to get to Kluang, and take a cab from the bus terminal to Belumut (or Gunung Lumut as it is known locally).
