Covering an area of 130 square
kilometers, the Kenong Rimba Park is
situated in natural surroundings with cascading
waterfalls, clear mountain streams and a variety of
flora and fauna. The merry chirping of birds will create
an atmosphere which is really impossible to express in
words but it gives the listeners a very relaxing stress
free feeling. It offers great adventure travel such as camping, exploring
limestone caves, and swimming in the river whereby the
caves here are one of the most beautiful found in
Malaysia.
Challenging hiking trails
interspersed with protruding rocks and untouched natural
surroundings is a haven for adventure lovers. Within the
Kenong Rimba Park, there are several caves to explore
and they are located less than thirty minutes trek of
each other.
The more interesting caves are
Gua Batu Tangkap, Gua Batu Telangkup, Gua Batu Tinggi, Gua Hijau and Gua Harimau.
The caves situated approximately 122-152 m above sea
level are a natural habitat for a range of flora and
nature's other marvels. For nature lovers, a stop at Kenong Rimba Park is a must. It is a perfect hideout for
bird watchers for excellent bird watching opportunities, campers, anglers, trekkers and swimmers
and to get to this park, gather at the
Sungai Jelai Jetty at Kuala Pilah and catch a twenty minutes boat ride
to Tanjung Kiara Jetty in the park.
