Let's begin with the fact thare are two entrances to the waterfall area. "Gate A" and "Gate B". Gate B is for the climbers who want to "summit" and I didn't take that route because, as mentioned by someone below you WILL need a guide. Gate A is for your ordinary Joe (or Jill) who wants to see a cool... More

I really like this view. It's been my favorite so far... But you need to hike half of the mountain in order to reach there (It took like half day) maybe a few hrs for pro... Another thing is that even u feel so tired hiking, once you reach the top and drink the water from the river, u feel... More

Suggest for a new joiner of hikers to try climb this mountain. It is very speechless when you arrived at the highest peak. We climbed this mountain (on 2007 when I was seventeen) for a day. Admittedly this is very dangerous mountain and have a high level of difficulty if the hikers is unfit person. So need to have a... More

A big disappointment. There was none there to assist us so we just started walking. There was rubbish everywhere on the trail and no evidence of any upkeep. Considering we had to pay to get in the park we expected more

A rookie hiker. Climbed this mountain with some effort, with about 40 teenagers from various secondary schools, but did not get to reach the peak as someone forgot to bring the water cleansing tab and we were running dangerously low on water. Some students were also having difficulties carrying on. Very beautiful paths, rustic, a good introduction to mountain climbing.... More

Gigantic waterfall (for me). Drove up with colleagues to the waterfall after work. Felt refreshed. Had a scrumptious dinner and head back. Lucky for me not being behind the wheels. A good destination if you are in Malaysia. Will come back to trip and reach the summit of this legendary beauty!

This is a moderately difficult climb. The slope is bit high as you near the summit - the gradient a bit too much for the altitude of the mountain (~4000ft). Not advisable for unfit hikers. I started hiking at 530PM - reached base camp in about 2 hrs just when it got dark. Camped for the night and started the... More

It is a well preserved forest, with many different obstacles, such as rock climbing(near batu hampar check-point), ladders, stairs, mussy rocks, small streams, and 7 check point for... More
