Bukit Shabandar opposite the Empire Hotel off the Muara-Tutong Highway is a respite from the city and the heat. Don't get me wrong, it is still HOT in there, but once you are in the shade of the jungle, it is a little cooler than out in the open.

This is a great place to walk, run, hike and relax. I like to do the nine hills, and just like the name suggests you are up and down nine hills of varied terrain. It is a great workout and can be done in about 60-90 minutes.

Th park is open from 6.30-18.30 and the busiest times are early in the morning and late afternoon.
