Another late post.
Sometimes its nice to re-post much later... they do bring back memories of the day.
(Keeps me from having memory failure too!)
How to get there :
Travel time : 1 hour from Bangsar
Using the old trunk road, drive past the towns of Rawang, Serendah, Batang Kali and head towards Ulu Tamu.
Trekking time and terrain :
Trekking time and terrain :
On moderate speed with some photography -3 hours
Terrain rating 4/10
To the first fall is a easy peasy, 30 mins walk (stroll)
To where we stopped, I think its the 4th fall. There are forks along the way and the path is not clear.
At the waterfalls :
There are a few waterfalls along the way, we did not complete up to the 5th fall (was told that the 5th one is also a nice fall). We stopped at 4th due to time constraints.
Nice trek that ended up with a durian feast.
By the way, Sg Lumpur can actually join up to Sg Kedondong.
One can enter from Sg Lumpur and exit at Sg Kedondong - but your car will be miles away.
So make sure that preparations are done properly if this is attempted.

At the 1st fall - nice pool and can swim |
2nd fall |
3rd fall |
A little cascade, with signs of heavy downpour? |
4th fall, where we stopped |
Gushing water |
Durian, we chopped it this way as there were too many mouths to feed, all getting impatient |
Cleaning up at Ulu Tamu River |
