Walk With Rafizah: A Morning at Bukit Kiara
▶️Date: Saturday, 14 June 2025
▶️Meeting Point: MRT Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI)
▶️Time: 8:00 AM
For our June walk, we’re heading to the leafy trails of Bukit Kiara —one of the city’s most beloved green spaces.
Bukit Kiara has a rich history: it was once part of a rubber estate that played a role in Kuala Lumpur’s early development. Today, it’s a tranquil haven, offering a perfect escape from the city’s hustle. The tarmac trail we’ll take weaves through 8,000 steps of rolling gradients, canopied by tall trees and serenaded by birdsong.
Here’s what to expect:
▶️ We’ll walk the tarmac trail together—roughly 8,000 steps (about 6km).
▶️It’s a mix of gentle and challenging slopes—enough to get the blood pumping without being overwhelming.
▶️Runners are welcome to set their own pace and hikers can use the hiking path; Shaida will be hosting this month’s walk and will lead the group through a steady, social-paced walk.
Afterwards if you have the time, we’ll lepak for breakfast at one of nearby spots: Kopitiam Kolumpo, Pasar for sweet apom, or Jaipur for idli masala. The perfect reward after a satisfying walk!
No registration or payment needed (well, except for paying for your own breakfast and MRT tickets)—just show up in your walking shoes.
Getting there via public transport:
▶️Take MRT Kajang and alight at MRT Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI). If you are from Kajang, pick the line that's heading to Kwasa Damansara. If you are from Sungai Buloh, pick the line that's heading to Kajang.
Bukit Kiara Hill Walk is within easy walking distance from the station. We will meet at the station entrance so please exit the station once you arrive.
▶️If you are taking LRT Kelana Jaya, the best way is to alight at interchange station LRT Ampang Park or LRT Pasar Seni; and then hop on the MRT Kajang Line.
These monthly walks are about reconnecting—with nature, with history, and with each other. Whether you’re a regular or joining for the first time, come along, walk, chat, and enjoy a Saturday morning of fresh air and good company.
Hope to see you there!
