Bentong is located in western Pahang, Malaysia. It’s about 80km from
Kuala Lumpur and approximately 90 minutes drive via Lebuhraya-Gua Musang.
So, why Bentong?
Because Bentong Half Marathon 1.0 will be held
on December 16, 2017. And it’s going to be a great getaway for a REAL Makanthon
trip.
If you are driving, do stop over at Lentang
Forest Recreational Park (Hutan Lipur Lentang) at Km48 Kuala Lumpur-Karak
Highway. This also happened to be the lunch stop-over for my yearly KL-Maran
pilgrimage walk.
Durian season is still ongoing so you can make
your way to this popular Jimmy’s Durian Orchard at Km75.1 Jalan Karak.
And of course, if you opt for public transport
(which I will), you may board the bus from Terminal Bus Pekeliling, Kuala
Lumpur. Bus services start from as early as 7.30am.
Once you are in Bentong, you may wanna check
