The Peak
(left photo: Manglayang's peak, Right photo: Prisma peak)
Manglayang's peak is an area of a soccer pitch, surounded by many trees. there is a grave there, many version of stories about it, some said that it was the tomb of an old man who used to meditate there. :)
speaking about the view, you can't get sunrise except the trees and the mist there, to get the sunrise, you gotta go to prisma peak. it's a half time walking.
The Morning
Beautiful sunrise, (Photo taken from prisma peak of Manglayang) |
5 o'clock in the morning, the sun started rising. I can see the beauty of orange lining in the east though it was not the brightest day because of the rain falling a night before. But still, sunrise is beautiful. We can see Mt. Cikurai (2821 mdpl) from here and Mt. Geulis (Right photo) as well.
The trees and the mist The slope
There are many routes to get to the top of Mt. Manglayang (Barubereum, Batukuda, or cilengkrang) but all of the routes is very steep just like the right photo. almost along the way. and there are many cliff to here and there. yet it was a real adventure.
Titiran 27 Crew
(Left-Right: Adynura, Akbar, Ramdha)
This is "Titiran 27 crew", I once hike here with akbar (The one with manglayang's sign) but we stop right before we got to the top. well, we got here to complete our last quest. :D
These people (Ady, Akbar, and Ramdha) are strong people, fighters for sure. getting here in the middle of the night with that weight in your shoulders, and still have laugh along the way. they're simply superb.
