    Spent a couple of hours there. Easy walk to the waterfall from the carpark. Overall free from litter probably due the small entry fee imposed. This should be implemented Malaysia wide. Not overly busy during the weekend we visited.

    This natural waterfall is truly impressive, with clear waters flowing through a peaceful setting, making it a great spot for families to enjoy nature. The water depth ranges from about 50 cm to 1.5 meters, making it suitable for all ages. Families with children should keep an eye on them at all times. Overall, it's a wonderful place to visit and enjoy the beauty of nature.

    I absolutely love this waterfall! It's filled with the refreshing essence of nature. I visited over the weekend, making a stop along the way to Kuantan. The path leading to the waterfall includes a 10-minute stretch of mountain road, which is quite uneven and narrow. There’s a small entrance fee of just RM6 per person to access the waterfall. The waterfall itself is quite large, with strong currents and many rocks at the upper stream, so extra caution is needed. Most people prefer to enjoy the water and have picnics at the lower stream, where it's more relaxed. Near the parking area, there are food stalls and restrooms available for changing. On weekends, the waterfall closes at 6 PM, with a warning bell ringing at 5:30 PM to remind visitors to leave.

    Long road to drive in (a bit isolated) and need to pay entrance fees but so beautiful that it’s worth every effort! It’s clean and pristine and truly one of the most impressive waterfalls in Malaysia.
