If you are driving from Padang, head north on Jalan Raya Padang - Bukittinggi (Route 25) for approximately 100 km. After reaching the town of Bukittinggi, continue on Route 25 towards Payakumbuh.

From Payakumbuh, find a local minibus or shared taxi that’s headed towards Ujung Gading. This last leg will take you to the vicinity of 'FMG6+P32, Ujung Gading, Lembah Malintang'.
