Bukit Katak

Have to drive to muddy road. Great view once arrived.

Small hill with low altitude that remains after construction work. No trees around there so it's very hot in sunny day. It's usually not busy place and landscape is very beautiful because of water colour. Especially beautiful in clear sunny day with blue sky. Hiking trail is easy, short and safe, clear visible. I was there on Sunday afternoon and except me there was only one family. A lot of free parking everywhere. Last 1.5 km before hill the road is very narrow and no concrete.

Where Is Frog Hill Located?
frog hill penang

Located on the mainland side of Penang, in Tasek Gelugor, Frog Hill encompasses Kampung Guar Petai and Kampung Guar Perahu. At the top of the hill the view there is notably breathtaking with scenic landscapes.

Nice place to come, feel the fresh air, see the view and take photos.

We arrive early like 730am from Perlis.
The road is red mud road. Ride or Drive carefully after raining.

Next time, I would like to bring camping chair here and cook a cup of coffee and have my breakfast in this beautiful place.

This Space is so beautiful and Peaceful, Near to Nature. Prefer to visit here after 4 pm and while walking in Mountains mind your steps. In sunlight, you will not able to find any shadow place here and there are no shops or anything nearby. While you came choose to take water with you. As this Natural Space is a bit far from Mainland so the only access to come here is by your own car.

Take care. Happy Traveling here.

Bukit Katok or Frog Hill is best to visit in early of the morning or late afternoon. If one goes in the mid of the day, it will be very hot. Our family went there around 5-6pm on weekend by bezza. The route entering the Frog Hill is muddy and my car did slip into mud and I had a bit hard time to go through (but I made it in the end.). It is a place where family with kids should go and chill there a while. You will really love the place if you are a nature lover.

Went there morning, after ytd night rain. Super beautiful. Be careful with the slope, slightly slippery. Great view. Went there with mountain bike. Some people drive car also can reach.

Next level off the beaten track adventure- unsealed roads suitable to 4wd. We were met by an abandoned mine holes that when filled with water were spectacular

What a view when seeing it from the top of the hill, route to there might be block when using google map, need find other way to go around it.

Definitely recommend a visit if not much raining else might have muddy on route

It's really worth the trip even though you have to drive through a 1km muddy road. Avoid raining days. Ideally go early morning to avoid strong sun or evening but not too late for there is no street lamp.

This is a must visit place in Penang. It’s towards the mainland and it’s beautiful and peaceful. Is your are someone who love to trekking you must visit frog hill. It’s nature at its best, but one drawback is the road to this place. Plz don’t walk down till the hill take a care as there are monitor lizards. You can park the car down and climb up hill.

You'll go through a short off road trail to reach the frog hills. Do expect your car or bike becomes muddy if you go there after a rain. But the spectacular view does worth a car or bike wash.

Need to do some climbing. When you reach the top, a rewarding scenery is in front of you. An amazing Godsent piece of art. Green, blue, turquoise and earth. So harmonic.

Best time to visit this place is around 5:30pm. As weather is fine with full sunlight the scenery is obvious. If you arrive with vehicles better leave this place before 7pm as the gate will be chain.

Very beautiful scenery.
There is a lot of hole in the road from entrance to the hill need to drive carefully.

What make this journey meaningful is that I found a 🚲 cyling trail alone to this gem accidentally. ( I can't found any cyling trail on web.) No traffic, just about 18 mins+ bike from a taman entrance to the river path if non stop. ( You can see the paddy and river view along the journey, which is a plus if you're a nature lover. )

Definitely will be my weekly trip.

Instaworthy place, definitely a hidden gem. Saw people taking wedding photos here. The view is absolutely breathtaking. Had friends who visited before and knew the way in, really secluded area driving through forest and dirt road. Steep climb and not many people here.

Nice scene, nothing much to do here except enjoying the nature. As a heads up, you need to drive through about 2km of muddy road, no problem to reach this place by small car, but choose a shiny day to go.

Firstly - Hard to physically get to by car. Yet you need a car to get to the area as its just away from a main highway road. What I mean is if travelling to the Google location the taxi drivers either won't know it, or when they get to the end of your given route won't take you far enough down the road / 'track' as its kind of off road, muddy etc. So if you get to an area like this just get out and walk the rest (15-20 mins maybe). I'm advising this as our grab driver was trying to take us there and go various ways on his maps but getting stuck on narrow routes with nowhere to turn around! You should turn off the highway on a road for maybe 100 yards. If he won't go further due to terrain, just get out and walk. When walking the simple route is keep right walking to it. Keep left route walking back towards main road/highway.

Grab app - not so good to get a lift back to town / ferry etc as the area is remote. Have a back up driver number ready.

Ok the place itself is easily worth a visit! Free to wander, fantastic views over a lush green setting and the pools of water below. Kids go swimming here. No toilets, drinks etc anywhere in area so only visit with no full bladder and a water bottle!

Hidden gem which located at seberang perai, Penang. The view is real breathtaking in the early morning. To reach there at about 6.50 am before the sunrise 🌅. It is a real worth place for nature lover. But it is abit dangerous as the rocks are quite slippery and the road is real mug as well. Far from the main road which is abit 偏僻。it is not recommend to visit during a rainy day. And do go in a group and don't go alone for safety purposes.
