A few days ago, I decided to explore Cot Suwe Hill, a hill that is not widely known but offers extraordinary natural beauty. This trip not only provides a pleasant hiking experience, but also reveals a vast green landscape and a small river hidden in the forest.
Passing Challenging Rocky Roads
The journey begins by following a rocky road which is quite challenging. Initially, I thought the route would be easy to follow, but it turned out that the road was filled with large and small rocks which made the motorbike have to move slowly. The motorbike tires slipped several times between loose rocks, but I continued my journey with enthusiasm. Along the way, the scenery starts to look interesting—rows of coconut trees and green plants on the left and right of the road make this journey feel more natural.
As you get closer to the top, the air starts to feel cooler. The wind blew gently, carrying the scent of wet earth and fresh leaves. I parked the motorbike in a safe place and decided to continue the journey on foot up the hill.
Well, this is my friend who looks starting to get tired😅
The charm of Cot Suwe Hill from the heights
After a few minutes of walking uphill, I finally arrived at the top of the hill. The view at the top is absolutely incredible! From here, I can see vast expanses of green, forests that stretch as far as the eye can see, and blue skies that are starting to turn golden as the sun begins to fall to the western horizon. I immediately took out my camera and started photographing several angles that I found most interesting.
One of the most interesting is the small path that winds along the contour of the hill, surrounded by lush greenery. I also captured views of the forest in the distance that looked like an endless sea of trees. The soft afternoon sunlight makes every photo look more dramatic.
After I was satisfied photographing the view on the hill, I was curious about the small path that led into the forest. As if called to explore deeper, I continued my journey.
Finding a Small River in the Forest
I followed the narrow path, passing bushes and tall trees that provided natural shade. The forest is quite dense, but still allows sunlight to enter at some points, creating a magical view.
After walking for about 15 minutes, I started to hear the sound of gurgling water. The closer I got, the sound became clearer, until finally I found a small river flowing in the middle of the forest. This river is surrounded by large rocks and green plants that grow abundantly around it. The water is clear, reflecting sunlight through the leaves.
Without hesitation, I immediately captured this moment. I took several photos from various angles, trying to capture the beauty of this small hidden river. Some leaves and twigs that fall into the water add to the natural and wild impression of this place.
enjoy the soothing sounds of nature. The air here is cooler than at the top of the hill, perhaps because of the many trees that shade this area. I let time pass for a while, enjoying the calm before finally preparing to return.
Journey Home with a Heart Full of Satisfaction
After being satisfied exploring this small river, I decided to return. The journey home felt lighter, perhaps because my heart was happy after finding a place as beautiful as this. When I crossed the rocky path again, I again saw a very calming view from the top of the hill.
This trip truly provides an extraordinary experience. Cot Suwe Hill not only offers beauty from its peak, but also holds surprises in its forest. The hidden creek was a highlight of the trip, making me want to return again someday to explore further.
