This is the ninth highest peak in Peninsular Malaysia and is located in the Krau Wildlife Reserve near Jerantut in Pahang. The most established route is from the northeastern boundary of the reserve through Kampong Tengah, which is the starting point to access the trail to Gunung Benom. Entry permit must be obtained from the Department of Wildlife and National Park or from the local police. It can take five days to climb this mountain and be prepared for muddy and slippery conditions as well as low night temperatures at higher altitudes.
