PENANG HILL: Penang Hill is actually made up of a series of hills which rise above the island. The peak stands at 821 metres above sea level, which makes it a cool getaway from the tropical heat below. The hill is accessible via a funicular train which was first opened for use in 1923. The train operates in two sections and passengers change railcars at midpoint. It takes about half an hour to reach the summit and the train service operates at half hour intervals. Alternatively, the fit and adventurous can hike up the hill from the many hiking trails available – the most popular trails start at access points close to the Botanical Gardens. The hike itself is about 6.7 km or 4.5 miles long, which will take hikers an average of 2 to 4 hours, depending on level of fitness. Upon reaching the summit, one is rewarded with a panoramic view of Penang island and mainland Malaysia There are also old bungalows, a hotel, bird park and walking trails which are worth checking out.

Stretching across 500 acres of lush greenery, Penang Golf Resort is strategically located in the heart of the Kepala Batas township in northern Seberang Perai. Former Malaysian and US Senior Open champion Graham Marsh designed this 36-hole championship layout which exudes a striking balance of development and nature. The many praises it has won as the most well-maintained course in the region is certainly contributing to its fast gaining popularity. The tree-lined fairways, roughs and tees are tufted with Zoysia while the well-manicured greens are blanketed with Bermuda Tifdwarf. Built on a flat terrain, Penang Golf Resort with its wide open fairways is considered generous even to the wayward and short hitters. This feature makes it prone to the influence of wind, a factor that adds challenge to golfers.
