Bilut Extreme Park 2022 – NEW and IMPROVE


Those of you that have been following my blog would realised that I LOVE ATV ride. This is one of the best.



First of all, the ride was at the oil palm plantation, proper rugged road paved for us, secondly, it was a 30 mins ride (wish wish wish it was for an hour). It took us uphill and downhill, and last but not least; we rode to the highest point (or at least that was what I thought at that point of time) and get to see the whole plantation area (rasa macam nak jerit, tanah ni aku punya!!! Not). Oh yah! The best part we rode across the stream. I would love for it to be river but it is too shallow to be called one, well, it’s good enough for me.



Yup! That was the new route I tried, this versus the first time I visited this place half a decade ago… this time around (the new route I mean) is definitely the bestest. I also learnt that they have the whole range of ATV, from the smallest when ATV first started – 1st generation, 2nd generation is the 150cc, then the 250cc. And the biggest is the 500cc, more sturdy and obviously bigger – bawak pun lagi best.

I am obsess with riding the ATV in the stream, konon-konon rugged lagi macho gitew. Lepas tuh I sungai tuh terpercik-percik… rasa gempak sesangatkan. Hakikat nya… anak sungai tuh mengalir manja jer. Otak I yang overthinking, as usual.

I tried archery the last time I visited, so I skip this. Done paintball shooting before as well so – skipped! BUT I wanted to try archery tag and human ball but we did not manage to as we were running out of time (dang!)… kena repeat ni. But but but…. Do you know why I wanted to try archery tag? 2 words : Katniss Everdeen.

Aside from that, sukan memanah  adalah sunnah yang dituntut kepada umat Islam untuk mempelajarinya, selain berenang dan menunggang kuda. Dengar tuh sohabat-sohabat ku sekalian…



My suggestion if you plan to do a 2D1N or 3D2N around Bentong/Raub is, that you can stay at Bilut Hill Resort and spend half a day at Bilut Extreme Park. The resort can assist you with the arrangement I believe, alternatively you can also book directly with them. I think its value for money, and a good way to support local.

JOM lah! 2 jam jer…

Bilut Hill Resort | Above the Carpet of Clouds

Places to visit in Bentong
1. Bentong Farm
2. Bilut Extreme Park


OK! I have ALWAYS wanted to experience farm stay, and baru tau kat Raub-Pahang pun ada rupanya. Well, not actually a farm stay cause I did not manage to milk the cow nor kutip telur ayam of that sort lah but it was a stay in an orchard with petting zoo and nature. Kira aci lah kan…

The place is Bilut Hill Resort where one need to drive into palm oil plantation and go further uphill (honestly this scares me abit, perhaps because I rarely get to drive up hill up up up kan or maybe because I am gayat too kot. And when you approach the hill, the view was heavenly, they say you get to see carpet of clouds at sunrise… this certain got us excited.



As this is a small locally own resort, everything is managed casually and simply so do set your expectation right, with regards to the speed and service. Plus the fact that it is located on a hill hence give them some time to run up and down to fetch something (or anything for that matter). Oh! And another thing, all your rooms is located further up this hill, hahahhahaha….. bertabah lah naik dengan bag besar. BUT worry not, there is a free buggy service to bring you and your luggage up. OK… lap peluh panic tuh. Ahak.


I learnt that there is a few room category as well as a few type of room (eh, ada beza ke?). Basically, what I mean for room category are : twin sharing, deluxe so on and so forth. As for room type : dome type, all glass walled (kid you not, this room has no bathroom), Greek Island concept, rumah kampung style and many more. Not sure whether you get to choose or no but no harm asking when you do the booking. And I got the Greek Island concept – macam tau-tau pulak I have been to Santorini kaaaan….


If you are wondering how the rooms condition is – it comes proper toilet/running water (except from the all glass walled toom, air-conditioned, clean (haruslah kan), siap ada swimming pool lagi (common pool). To me, this is a great place for weekend gathering with friends, family outing or self-recuperating time. Whatever rocks your boat baby!


If you are wondering what activities you can do here or the facilities they have at Bilut Hill Resort, well then…. Feast your eyes :

🏢 32 accommodation rooms
🎶 FREE KTV (karaoke) room
🏊‍ Infinity pool
🎱 Snooker area
🎯 Archery



🐇 Rabbit petting area
🍍 Fruit orchard
🏕️ Hiking for sunrise
🛴 Collab with Bilut Extreme Park

Oh yah! Those that followed me on my IG would have known that I signed up for a 30mins hiking trip to catch the sunrise, and yah…. I slept in. Tidur itu lebih indah orang kata. Keh keh keh… Because it was raining the night before so no ‘eye yolk sun’ for them to see. Cian….

And for those who love outdoor activities, I believe they have ATV ride here as well, alternatively you can get the resort to arrange for you to enjoy half a day at Bilut Extreme Park. You won’t regret this.


Plan lah… since it is only 2 hours away from KL kan.

Bentong Farm – A must go, guys!



Sure curious nak tau kan, especially sebab I kata wajib. Betuk tak?
 
To be honest, I did do my part by doing some background search on the place. There’s orchard, petting zoo, camp site, fish pond yada-yada… un-amazed with what I read/see on Mr. Google. Not until I arrived at the site, the orchard was ok lah… not my kinda thing. I am more excited with the petting zoo as I love animal (only the cute and gentle ones) and what I experienced was… BEST GILER.


Hedgehog… I wanted a pic with it but I am so scared of it quills. Do you know that the hedgehog cannot shoot its quills to defend itself. And also, a hedgehogs have about 5,000 spines versus  a porcupines have around 30,000.


Then of course I ran towards the llama and alpaca. Both animals are part of the camel family - Camelidae. Llamas are larger than alpaca, and of course Alpacas have cuter with blunt nose. And I simply love alpacas fur, very very soft.

 
As I thought I am done (after seeing my wish list animal - alpaca and llama), they brought me to check out a…. WHITE CROW. Apparently, it is an albino crow – very rare indeed. In awe, I was. Definitely.


There are many more animals to be seen but I will share with you guys those that caught me off guard, such as the pink cow. Giler besar ok lembu ni, ke kerbau?


And then, there’ wallaby. You need not go to Australia to show you kids a wallaby, just drop by Bentong Farm jer.


Then there’s the famous black swam of which reminded me of Perth, Australia.
 
Recently, Bentong Farm welcomes a new animal friend – Nyala, the beautiful spiral-horned antelope native to southern Africa.
 
As when I thought I have seen them all, I was informed that they are building a camp site on top of the hill. Not glamping tau, camping minus all the glams staff. I have a feeling it will be super hot… be weary on the weather and have the right expectation if you plan to camp here. Panas lit-lit tauuuuu.
 
 
In a gist, these are the reason why you should visit Bentong Farm.
1. Their petting zoo is SUPER clean with NO bad smell. I believe it is because of the running water, good animal food and frequent cleaning.
2. ONLY 2hrs from KL. Dekat jer...
3. Affordable in price
4. Interesting animals : Llama, alpaca, WHITE crow, BLACK swan, PINK cow, wallaby, giant tortoise, hedge hock and many more.
5. The staff knows their stuff, kept explaining to me about the animals
6. There's a camp site up on the hill.
