Gunung Sunda . A heavy breath for keep in existence

caption:two of local guides walking in a hill with tree and wild grass

Hello hello everyone ,welcome to october and pray all of you lovely local guides family in blessings life .

So let me take you to a small hill with at more than 800 meters above sea level located on Sukabumi West Java .

We hike to reach the hill for little fun with our community Sukabumi Local Guides .

with @Aikoo and @Ripal_mf as always ahaha .

The location near by local guides Aikoo home actually just need 10 minutes ,and for hiking arround 15 or 20 minutes hear so simple and easy right ?

But don’t thinking it will be easy because when you take step in stair and uphill route ,be ready with your breath ,and sweating .

For more fun local guides Ripal_mf initiative to recording podcast during the hiking ,little bit chatting and speaking about local guides especially sukabumi Local Guides.

We passed much of thatch grass and bamboo trees, more uphill more heavy our breath , we just meet 2 aunty during uphill walk, this places so silence and very different in the few year ago . Little bit scary but that’s reality

We reached the hill after sweating so much, and make empty the only one a water bottle which I have , however I’m not expert for hiking .

We can’t find anything only wild grass and trees and also a wall with text " GUNUNG SUNDA " that it . Really silence no visitors no vendor of food or drink .

very popular in past time ,you can shoot the landscape all sukabumi regency from here , perfect place for sunset and sunrise ,more than 1000 review son Google maps . But since last year this hill claims by one of cement factory as a part of company asset and still controversy untill today . That’s why slowly this places loose the power .

Only 10 minutes in the hill and we’re moving for heading back .So connect let me save this places with our little story because not really sure in the future can free for visiting this place again especially after this hill really a part from company asset .And by the way the recording podcast from Aikoo and Ripal_mf also failed because he forget to press the button of recording ,so poor all of us .

And last present our story also as part of #MONTLYTOPIC from @HiroyukiTakisawa for october monthly topic a silence place . So glad can joining your interesting topic ,thank you so much .

And one more I wanna tag Teh @Ant_Bad_Yogi because she love so much hiking ,and tell us Teh how to keep our breath stay calm during the hiking,because we’re lost of breath even uphill less than 1 hours like in the video

wkwkwk, teh @Nyainurjanah , your friend forgot to press the button to record the podcasr, wkwkwk.

Teh, I’m glad you tagged me to this beautiful post. It seems you had fun and enjoyed the company. You are lucky to live near a place like this, it is beautiful. Too bad it’s claimed by a company.

To answer your question, here is my suggestion. You just let it be. When you are tired, just stop and take a rest. This way, you will hear your heavy breath and that is wonderful. My yoga teacher said sometimes we got a pain after practicing, but it is a beauty pain. This hiking is the same. :slightly_smiling_face:

Téh @Ant_Bad_Yogi the person who take responsibility for failed podcast is @Ripal_mf wkwk too fun for speaking and forgot the record .

Yes this hill claims by company but one thing legendary said this hill is ghost area that’s why 3 escavator and bulldozer can’t destroy this area . True or not about legendary but the results is good the hill still survive

I see Teh more hiking ,keep walking and rest sometime maybe my breath will adjust ,thank you for the suggestion

Teh @Ant_Bad_Yogi I never meet with ghost but if there any choice please don’t , I prefer meet with good looking person than meet with scary ghost wkwkwkw .

The evolution of the ghost becoming in another version like ghost charming or prince devil ahaha

I don’t remember exactly teh @Ant_Bad_Yogi the distance from parking only 2 or 2,5 km and took approximately 20 minutes I guess , staying on hill 5 or 10 minutes and hiking down 15 minutes . Short route . From home only 12 km based google maps .

Hi @Shidiq_aerith

Kabar terakhirnya seperti itu ,belum diambil alih pabrik memang masih negosiasi ,bisa jadi juga tahun ini sepi karena pandemik .

Semoga tetap eksis makin ramai . Lihat di Google Maps masih ada saja kok yang berkunjung di era new normal ini
