KUALA LUMPUR: On a tranquil Sunday morning, a remarkable group of 23 visually impaired people broke stereotypes as they embarked on a challenging hike up Taman Rimba Bukit Kerinchi.

These determined adventurers from the Society of the Blind in Malaysia (SBM) were not alone, as they were joined by trail experts from the Malim Gunung Perhutanan Selangor Association (MGPS), who provided guidance throughout the hike.
