The road began climbing upward on the mountain with the beautiful scenic views in front. Because of frequent rains and running water from the mountains, the road to Saiful Muluk get destroyed every year, but now the government is constructing a concrete road till Saiful Muluk so that it can last longer. On one side of the road is the High Mountain range and the other side is the deep valley below, with the coursing river.
