Gunung Ledang is considered among the 10 most challenging mountains in Malaysia to climb. If not because some facilities have been provided by the Johor Gunung Ledang National Park, the situation might have been more difficult.

There is an Asahan route that is more steep, except for some steep places, but it is further away and there is only one water source along the climb to the top.
