An old story, a small journey to the top of Mount Burni Telong in Takengon City. Burni Telong has a height of 2670 meters above sea level which makes us have to climb about 6 hours to reach the last peak. I took this tortuous journey with several friends, with an extraordinary climb at the beginning but greatly enjoyed at the end of our trip.
The journey starting from our city to the city of Takengon took about 5 hours and after resting we continued climbing for 6 hours with the height of this mountain we were fast. Usually for climbing Burni Telong the average person spends 7-8 hours climbing, because this mountain is very steep and the rainy situation is very influential for climbers.
We had a few breaks to recharge our energy and then continued climbing. What an amazing hike with a first time in a lifetime experience climbing a mountain like this. At first I was tired and wanted to give up on the climb, because I felt very tired and this was the first time for me. But some friends still encourage me to keep fighting to the top, they seem to say it's the first time. Even though they had climbed many times, it was my first time.
But long after deliberation, I finally decided to continue all the way to the final peak and it was so much fun when I got to the top. After reaching the top, the body feels light and I have recharged. We were at the top not so long when compared to our climb. The place to stop at the top was too small for the many of us, while a few people at the bottom were also on their way to the top and it wouldn't be possible to be there all.
We finally descended after not so long at the top, after we enjoyed the view and took a few moments to capture. But when I go down I feel lighter, I don't feel too tired anymore than when I climb.
A very pleasant trip and the first experience in my life to climb a mountain.
