On 12 April 2025, the EITA Sports Club hosted its much-anticipated hiking event themed “Let’s Hit The Trail!” at the scenic Taman Rimba Bukit Kerinchi Trail, also known as Bukit Gasing. Starting bright and early at 7:30 AM, 16 enthusiastic participants laced up their hiking shoes and embraced the challenge of reconnecting with nature—and with each other.

The event was more than just a morning walk through the woods. It was part of the Sports Club’s ongoing efforts to promote a healthy and active lifestyle, encouraging employees to step away from their screens and engage in outdoor physical activity. Along the trail, participants experienced not only the calm of the natural surroundings but also the warmth of camaraderie, mutual encouragement, and shared laughter.

The event was organized with several key objectives in mind: to promote health and wellness through outdoor activity, strengthen social connections among colleagues, and provide a refreshing escape from work-related stress. It also aimed to encourage teamwork and mutual support among participants while reinforcing the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

The gentle yet invigorating hike served as a welcome mental reset, offering participants a chance to de-stress, recharge, and enjoy the great outdoors in good company. A thoughtful touch that didn’t go
unnoticed was the presence of two medics, who escorted the group throughout the hike to ensure everyone’s safety and peace of mind.

Fueled by positive feedback and a group of happy hikers, the event proved to be a resounding success—highlighting that one of the most effective ways to strengthen team bonds is by sharing meaningful experiences in nature.
