In this week's episode of S.A.D. we went jungle bashing again...with the monkies because school holidays isn't an excuse to sleep in! 🤣
Known as the Kay Siang Bunkers, they were used for goods and ammunition storage by the British Military, and built alongside the now-demolished Buller Camp that housed Australian and Indian POWs during the Japanese Occupation.
Before heading there, I did a search online and while there isn't an exact map marking out the bunkers, it does come out on Google Maps. The first bunker can be accessed via Kay Siang Road and it's only a one-min walk. Short walk, but terrain can be slippery and muddy so do wear shoes with good grip. I think the first one is the most impressive of the lot because although only the facade is left standing, a huge chunk of it has been taken over by vines and roots - a mighty show of force by Nature! (Plus, it's a good spot for the gram 😁)
The second bunker is just a few steps away from the first one and it's a fully intact but empty one. And if you search online, there is almost no mention of a third bunker. But if you follow the well-trodden trail on the right of the second bunker, you will find the third one. It is actually situated nearer to Margaret Drive, opposite MINDS.
The total hike didn't take too long, about 30min tops but some parts of the terrain can be quite challenging due to slopes and muddy paths. The monkies certainly enjoyed it, more than if we had gone to the usual park. Or so they tell me. 😆
