Highest Point | summit, interesting place

 summit, interesting place
Visitors to Gaya Island can choose to hike up to this peak, which takes about two hours (1.58 km) from Base Camp. The trail is more of an uphill trek with dense vegetation surrounding it. Despite its name - Highest Point, it is not actually the highest peak on Gaya Island. It is 298 metres above sea level and is just 6 metres lower from the true highest point on the island. Visitors should also not be fooled by its name - there is no view over the sea or towards KK city from here as tall trees surround the peak in all directions. A telecommunication tower is erected here.
