The Skytrex Adventure is located at the other side of Bukit Cahaya Seri Alam botanical garden. I visited the botanical garden once just for sight seeing and have never been to visit the skytrex park. Other than Skytrex, there are a lot more things to see such as 4 seasons house and other mini gardens. Actually I quite like this botanical garden because it is clean, big and beautiful. Free shuttle bus is available to travel you to different mini gardens, another option is renting a bicycle.
Landmark of the botanical garden
During the day of our skytrex adventure, the botanical garden is having a Hari Bertemu Pelanggan event, there are free food and music performance for all visitors, the satay was awesome but we did not eat much as just had a full breakfast
Handcrafted products are sold here
Skytrex bus that bring us to the adventure spot, it has a different route with the botanical garden shuttle bus. But the staff is very friendly and helpful, he will make sure participants in his name list get to the right bus.
Just few minutes bus ride and we reached the place
Finally we made up our mind to come here! I was actually waiting long~
Procedure to work on
While getting to the check in counter, saw people have fun with the little adventure
The little adventure is suitable for kids and people who do not wanna take up too much challenge
They own a picnic deck, but no food is sold there, so gotta bring your own one!
So excited to get check in with the extreme challenge, actually I have serious height phobia
The very helpful staff that assist us on making registration and renting on locker and bottle holder
Bought ourselves a pair of gloves at RM3 (Optional) and rent a bottle holder, skytrex really understand our needs as they just provide anything you require!
Locker can be rented at only RM1
The extreme challenge has a real long route which will take us about 2-3 hours to complete
After registration and go toilet, we got ourselves a safety harness
Ready to go!
It is fun to have Jonathan and Alicia come together!
We first proceeded to the training station for safety briefing
We were briefed how to work on with the hook
The staff Ivy demonstrated us the skill to pass all obstacles and precautions to bear in mind
The simple hook can actually sustain the body weight of us, and don't worry to fall down as long as you make sure your hooks are clasped properly
Start our first training, Ivy will remind and correct you if you do anything wrong here. The training here is important because not all platform has a standby guide, she will make sure you do correctly to prevent accident
Small flying fox for training purpose
Every station has a label to teach you how to handle your hook, just in case you don't remember what Ivy has taught
Our 1st challenge was to climb up this 14m ladder, I don't feel scare while climbing as I never looked down! But I climbed it exhaustingly as my arms are strengthless
Look down from the 14m top
2nd challenge, flying fox from 14m high! Very scare and I actually take long time to make first move of sliding down
3rd challenge
Crawl over the slightly slanted net, quite easy though
Ready to go for 4th challenge
4th challenge is to crawl the net again, but this time is more slanting one
It is quite hard to move in a net as you will tend to sink down
Each challenge can sustain 2 players, and each platform can sustain 3-4 players, make sure you don't follow the people in front too near!
At the platform after the 4th challenge, 5th challenge is flying fox again, this time was not as scare as the first time already
The 6th challenge, looked difficult but it is actually quite easy to walk on cable
7th challenge is monkey bars, I did not hang but slide like flying fox instead as really no energy for my arms to support my weight. Then we got to jump over to another platform by coarse rope like tarzan (8th challenge), however the distance is really very short, I can cross over without the rope as well
9th challenge, and the most challenging one, we spent the most energy and time here as the tube is keep swinging and we found very hard to balance ourselves, not to say even moving forward
The 10th challenge, this is comparatively easier but still I take up a lot of effort to finish it as the rope is not so stiff as the cable, thus I found it quite hard to balance also
11th challenge, much easier!
12th challenge, climb the ladder again, ladder is the second most challenging activity after the tube crossing, I need to stop and rest for every 2 climbed steps
The 13th challenge, cable walking with one cable to hold, easy job!
Easy but long way to go
14th challenge, flying fox again
15th challenge, cable walking with two cables to hold
In case you wish to quit the game, there are some emergency exits available
16th challenge, bridge crossing and this is quite swinging
17th challenge, highest, longest and last flying fox of the game
18th challenge, bridge crossing with net enclosed, easy though
But it is quite high from ground level
19th challenge, climb down the ladder, a lot easier than climb up and I can move fast already
This little pulley can support up to 136kg! And we climbed down by its help~
20th challenge, if we can walk easily on cable, this definitely not a problem to us!
21st challenge, I have tube phobia and thought this would be very hard for me to move on, but surprisingly it is not as swinging as the 9th challenge, probably being stabled by the wood block already
22nd challenge, cable walking with handles~ I found it easier to hold the cable instead of the triangle handle as it just make you unbalance only
The challenge we did not play, as it is another route and if we play this we got to skip challenge 21st and 22nd. I guess this would be harder for me as the tubes are kept swinging and I got to rely on arm strength and jump like tarzan!
Last challenge of the day, crawling over the net to reach the exit point!
Yeah, finally we made it!
We were so hungry and exhausted after the game, thus got back to the entrance door there to have some free food but yummy satay and fruits were finished, left the lemang, redang chicken and fried mihun soup, all are delicious! Thanks for the hospitality~
Thought we will get fatigued after all these? Nope, we had second round outing!
When come to play, never feel tired!
