Gunung Arong is located in Mersing, Johor.
It is part of the "Hutan Taman Negeri Gunung Arong" (Gunung Arong Recreational Forest).
The hiking trek started at Masjid Tg Resang, traversing the forested rocky hilltop along the coast, towards Pantai Rekreasi Mersing, to the south.
The trek is easy for seasoned hikers, and the view is breath taking, especially on a clear sunny day, just like on the day of the hike.
The waters simmered from light emerald green to minty lime to sapphire green to blue azure, aquamarine and turquoise.
The white cotton candy cloud that seems glued to the deep blue sky made the view even more perfect.
The tiredness from the steep climb were forgotten when we encountered the view. The half heart-shaped bay was a sight to behold.
The highest point of the climb provided us with a 360 degree view of the bay and the forest.
All in all, it was a rewarding hike.
A definite recommendation to all hikers and nature lovers.
