tour details

Leave the city behind on this nature adventure. After being introduced to the region with a video presentation of Taman Negara at the Interpretive Centre, you’ll proceed to a night jungle walk for an amazing nocturnal forest experience. Enjoy the orchestra of jungle noises performed by cicadas and other night insects and animals. Soak in the fresh night air and enjoy nature as she was intended to be. After breakfast at the resort, venture into the nearby forest for a slow trek through the riverine, lowland and mixed dipterocarp forest to reach Teresek hill (about 1,130 feet above sea level). Try a balancing act on the canopy walk for an aerial view of the beautiful rainforest. In the afternoon, proceed to Lata Berkoh by boat to enjoy the cool water pools and cascading waterfalls.

Why choose this tour?

A delight for travellers seeking an adventure in a prehistoric jungle. Taman Negara has protected status meaning this 130 million years old ecosystem retains some unique biodiversity. The forest is dimly lit to avoid scaring off wildlife and to conserve energy. Everything used is biodegradable and all the wooden chalet interiors are made of natural products.
