Desaru Weekend Cycling

Desaru is a beach resort area located at the south eastern side of Johor about 100km from the Changi coast. This cycling trip will take us through the small fishing town of Pengerang, passing through the idyllic Ramunia beach, and onwards to Desaru where we'll stay overnight in one of the cozy beach chalets/hotels there.

With the sea breeze blowing lightly in your face, enjoy the relaxing and quiet country atmosphere as you cycle pass rich oil palm and rubber estates. This is an ideal weekend getaway to take your mind off a busy work schedule and bring you closer to nature, away from the hustle and bustle of our concrete city.

The program includes:

  • 2-way bumboat transfers between Changi & Pengerang
  • Meals (see itinerary for details)
  • Accommodation in air-conditioned beach chalets / hotel with attached bathrooms on triple-share basis
  • 3-day bike rental
  • personal accident insurance
  • First Aid support

For twin-sharing, there will be a surcharge of $15 per person. In addition, an extra surcharge of $20 is applicable for public holidays.

Highlights

  • back-to-kampong-days feeling as you cycling through the fishing town of Pengerang to resort town of Desaru

Day 1

We will meet at 0900hrs at the POSB ATM machine at Changi Village and proceed to pick up our rental bikes. Once all participants are assembled, we shall take the bumboat across the sea to Pengerang, Johor. There we start our cycling adventure leisurely through Pengerang village and visit some off-road trails. Rest at Sungei Rengit town for refreshments / lunch before proceeding to Ramunia beach and check into the beach chalets. This will be our stop for the night and you'll have the rest of afternoon for free n easy activities such as beach games or self exploration of nearby areas etc. ( Dinner provided )

Day 2
Next morning after breakfast, we continue our long ride towards Desaru where we will stay in comfortable air-conditioned beach chalets or hotel accommodation. This is the time to rest those aching butts and recuperate from the hard riding! Those who prefer to take it easy can simply laze by the beach listening to the pounding surf with a book in their hands or engage in a game of beach volleyball or other activities. Or you can venture out of the resort to explore the surrounding areas on your bike. ( Breakfast + Dinner provided )
Day 3
On the 3rd morning, we commence our long cycle back to Pengerang and take the return bumboat to Changi Village jetty, arriving back in Singapore by 4pm. ( Breakfast + Lunch provided )

Back to Top

The cycling is on good paved roads that are relatively flat and is suitable for cyclists of most skill levels. Cycling distance is long at about 55 km each way, slightly more if we venture off the road to explore the side trails and nearby kampongs and estates. Participants need to take note that there are a series of uphills after Pengerang that are physically taxing and good basic fitness is required for this event
