We hike up to BMC Blue Lake at Mahkota Cheras in May. I was told by others that this place was not accessible since it was a private land. But still there were a lot of people coming over for the scenic lake view. It was not hard to find this place. Type BMC Blue Lake in Waze and they bring you to the entry point. The best entrance point was through the residential area.
The trail was easy. Suitable for beginners too. There was a signboard showing that this place was not safe for entry warning you not to trespass BUT the barbed wires been trampled.
Before we reached the Blue Lake, there was a steepy slope which was almost 90 degree. I was bit panic at first to get down but with the help of other, I managed to do it.
There was tree branches left at the scene to help us to get down and climb up.
Finally we made it to the top. We spent around 40 mins just for the hike from the entry point.
Top view of the lake
That's the only nice spot I could found for taking the photo together with the lake view. Mostly were blocked by the trees.
We even walked down to the side of the lake. But that's another 30 mins journey to get down there. Coming down here, there is no way to get out from here. We need to climb up again using the same trail and get down through the 90 degree slope as mentioned earlier. The water in the lake reflected the mirror view of the hill which giving a unique scene of the blue lake. Regardless of the name, we did not see it as blue but green. Still no idea of the name "blue lake" from where it came from...

DeleteHi, the place got time for in and out?
DeleteHi Iskrac, no time in and out specified because this place is not open to public to enter. You might put yourself in danger if you insist of going in now.
DeleteI think the land owner must open that place for public because its looks great
ReplyDeleteI wish it too
DeleteMay I know what is the suitable time to start?
ReplyDeleteI went in the morning last year. But I advised to check with others if this place is safe to go or not for now.
DeleteThe owner have station a security guard at the top of the trail ðŸ˜
ReplyDeleteWow thanks for informing.
DeleteOh does it mean we can no longer go to the lake?
DeleteI think you can change to go Setia Alam lake there. The scene of the nature lake is nice as well.
DeleteHow did u get down near that lake? Which route u use? Mind to share?
ReplyDeleteHi MK, I used the same route shown as above. Parked at residential area and walked inside from there. I just followed the crowd in front of me last time. But that was 2019, not sure the situation now as described by commenter which they stationed a guard at the top of trail.
DeleteWat time is suitable to hike
ReplyDeleteHi anonymous, I think the hill is not suitable for any hiking as commented by others in view that the place is not safe.
