The Himalaya Sports Tampin Trans Naning Ultra (HSTTNU) is a challenging trail-run with a 34km loop (once, twice, or thrice), the 21km Yang di-Pertua (YDP) Challenge, and the 8km Forest 9 Mountain race. Starting and finishing at Tampin Water Park, the courses traverse the iconic Trans Naning Trail with rugged seven-peak ridges and lush jungle.
The Forest 9 Mountain 8km is a short but challenging road ascent-and-descent run designed for hill lovers and speed climbers. Starting and finishing at Tampin Water Park, this fully paved route leads runners on a 4km climb along the winding Bukit Tampin (Forest 9) road to the summit (the final 4km of the Classic 34km category in reverse), followed by a 4km descent back to the starting point. Don't let the distance fool you! The steady gradient and sustained elevation gain demand both stamina and pacing. The descent rewards those with strong legs and sharp control, making this a complete test of climbing and downhill technique. With a two-hour cut-off, the Forest 9 Mountain is ideal for runners looking for a punchy, leg-burning challenge that packs a lot into just 8km. Climb up. Race down. Conquer Forest 9 Mountain.
