Itinerary
Singapore – Mersing – Singapore
6.00 AM – Assemble at Marsiling MRT Station for our transfer into Johor, via private vehicle.
After a quick and energising breakfast (own expense), sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic transfer onboard as we make our way to the starting point for today’s ride.
Kick off the day with a cycling journey towards the Penyabong Hidden Viewpoint. Upon arrival, embark on a short but steep hike to the top, where you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of the South China Sea, nearby islands, and the lush jungle canopy. Don’t forget to capture the moment—this spot is a hidden gem!
Next, pedal your way to Pantai Mawai, a serene and secluded beach renowned for its soft golden sands, crystal-clear waters, and verdant greenery. This untouched paradise is the perfect place to soak in the natural beauty of Johor’s coastline. After some relaxation, gear up for a 1-KM (approx.) hike through the Mersing Geopark, where you’ll discover unique geological formations and immerse yourself in the region’s rich natural heritage.
Enjoy a rewarding cycling workout as we traverse one of Malaysia’s East Coast’s most scenic and serene routes—a true highlight of the country’s stunning landscapes. Refuel with a delicious late lunch at a tranquil resort nestled near Teluk Buih, where you can unwind and savour the peaceful surroundings.
The final leg of the ride takes you to Mersing, a charming coastal town on the eastern shores of Peninsular Malaysia. Surrounded by lush jungles, pristine beaches, and sparkling waters, Mersing offers a laid-back atmosphere and a rich cultural tapestry of Malay, Chinese, and indigenous communities. Take some time to explore the waterfront promenade at your leisure, soaking in the town’s relaxed vibe.
As the day winds down, pack up and load your bicycles before settling in for a comfortable transfer back to Singapore. Sit back, relax, and reflect on the day’s adventures as we aim to arrive by 7 PM (traffic conditions permitting).
