You Need To Visit The Picturesque Frog Hill In Penang
The right time to visit Frog Hill will be in the evening before the sun goes down! The lake will look extremely blue and it translates spectacularly into photographs. Don’t go too early if not you will get sunburn as there are no big trees on the hills. Do remember to pack some water, and snacks for the trip! Also, put on some shoes, but not your favourites ’cause the rocks will leave some stains on the sole!
Frog Hill is approximately an hour drive from the island without traffic. All you need to do is Google Map or Waze your way there! It is in Tasek Gelugor, so turn in when you see the signage! The road inside can be a little difficult and small, so get the best driver among your friends or family to drive for the trip. The rocky road is perfect for four-wheel drive! Don’t worry, city cars can drive into Frog Hill safely too!
Driving in, you will notice the iconic lake first before seeing the hill itself! Drive in carefully and you will notice a space for parking on the right side, directly opposite of the lake. There are portable toilets that are not functioning. Maaf, rosak. Head to the loo first before going on this great adventure! Before climbing up the hill, you will need to go closer to the lake to see clear, clear, water!
Heading up is extremely easy as it is not too steep. The view is amazing, and you need to go to every corner of Frog Hill for pictures. You can take a group shot, a panorama shot, and even your feet dangling off the cliff! If you have a drone, it is time to unpack and work your magic! Now, it is time for some photographs to inspire you to head to Frog Hill.
Isn’t it dreamy?
Milky-blue lake!

Hello! Im planning to visit Frog Hill but I couldn’t find the way to get there from Penang, do you know if there’s a way with public transportation?
Thank you in advance
I don’t there’s any public transportation that leads to Frog Hill. Since it’s an abandoned tin mine, accessibility will be an issue.
