There is a notorious section of Gunung Ledang in Johor that’s interestingly named “KFC”. The signboard reads “Killing Fitness Centre” but climbers would probably call it “Killer for Climbers”.

KFC is located between Check Point 5 and 6 at 800m above sea level. For hardcore climbers, this is where the real climbing begins as it has an inclination of 65°.
