Di situ ada perkampungan orang Asli suku Semai. Mendaki ikut Sungai Kinta. Jarak dari Tanjung Rambutan ke Gunung Korbu ialah 16 km. Mulakan dari Kuarters PGA dan Jabatan Bekalan Air Ulu Kinta. Apabila tiba di puncak Gunung Korbu, pendaki boleh juga terus ke Gunung Gayong dan seterusnya ke Gunung Yong Belar kemudian turun di Cameron Highland, Pahang, ekspedisi pendakian ini lebih dikenali sebagai Trans Titiwangsa V1. Ekspedisi tersebut mengambil masa selama 5 hingga ke 7 hari. Terdapat sebuah rentis lama ke gunung ini yang jarang dilalui oleh para pendaki. Perjalanan rentis ini akan membawa pendaki melalui Sungai Seno'oi (melalui perkampungan orang asli Kg Cadak & Kg Makmur). Adalah digalakkan oleh setiap kumpulan pendaki yang ingin memasuki rentis di sekitar Banjaran Titiwangsa ini untuk mendapatkan khidmat jurupandu arah yang berlesen/berdaftar. Meskipun rentis-rentis ini tersedia ada buat sekian lamanya, namun terdapat banyak simpang-simpang yang dapat mengelirukan pendaki dan mampu membuatkan seseorang itu sesat. Daripada puncak ini kelihatan jelas pemandangan bandaraya Ipoh, Lembah Kinta, Bukit Keledang, pemancar di Bukit Larut, Taiping, Gunung Gayong, Gunung Yong Belar dan Gunung Brinchang di Cameron Highland. Gunung Yong Yap juga jelas kelihatan.

Upon arrival at the summit of Mount Korbu, climbers can also continue to Mount Gayong and on to Mount Yong Belar then down in Cameron Highlands, Pahang, climbing expedition is known as the Trans Titiwangsa V1. The expedition takes about 5 to 7 days. There is a long trail to the mountain that is less traveled by climbers. Another of this trail will lead climber through Seno'oi River (through the native village of Kg Kg Cadak & Prosperous). Is encouraged by each group of climbers who want to enter the trail in the vicinity of the Main Range to outsource a guide towards a licensed / registered. Although the trail, this trail is available for decades, but there are a lot of junctions which can be misleading climbers and can make a person lost.
