Sungai Bantang Waterfall (N2°20.991' E103°09.388') at Bekok, Johor.
"There are two good reasons why Hutan Lipur Sungai Bantang is a top choice for family outings or adventures. The first is the Endau Rompin National Park and the second is an award it has won for being the Best Recreational Forest in Johor.
Since it shares the same ground with the centuries-old national park, a trip to Hutan Lipur Sungai Bantang comes quite close to a trip to the national park itself. The furthest accessible waterfall, Takah Putri, leads to the western section of Endau Rompin.
There is a wide rocky river that ‘splits’ into two at the secondary forest before rejoining downstream. These two `branches’ have created an island that offers many great spots for camps or picnics.
If you find Sungai Bantang too tame to give you an adrenalin rush, try the number of interesting and challenging treks with hiking times of between one and six hours. The treks lead to several waterfalls." - By Snail-Works

ReplyDeleteHi Meiyah,

ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous@4:53pm,
ReplyDeleteThe nearest small town from the fall is 'Bekok' which I'm not sure whether there's hotel or not. But I will advise you to book a hotel around Yong Peng town, which is about 48KM away. There will some good foods around this small town like Yong Peng fish ball & Foo Chou Noodle...etc.
Thanks.
