At another part of Taman Negara, the Santuari Ikan Kelah Lubuk is where you can feed the protected Masheer fish with bread or specially-produced pallets

Gunung Senyum of Malaysia

I’ve been a regular camper (thrice) at this place enshrouded in the depths of Temerloh. 25 caves, all “conveniently” congregated at a single area, making this one of the best places for cave exploration in West Malaysia. None of the commercial hoopla that caves in Perak provide. This is secluded. It was back in 1993 during my school camping trip that I learned about these caves. Am thinking of a “homecoming” trip in March 2007. Wanna join? :-)

Check out the number of caves to explore. I only covered approx 18 caves.

Welcoming the Caves

Can’t remember what cave this was…

Magnifique

Looks like a painting, doesn’t it?

How To Get There

Located 40km from Temerloh, and 20km from Pusat Jengka.


By Road : From the main Kuantan to Kuala Lumpur road [via LPT] in the Temerloh area, there are 2 or 3 turn offs all signposted to Hutan Lipur (Recreational Forest) Gunung Senyum. One is by the east end of the bridge at Temerloh, one at Kampung Awah. Follow the signs. 40km, from Bandar Pusat Jengka.


By Water :Visitors who love challenging activities would want to endure the 'crossing over' Sungai Pahang, that drastically streams down to Gunung Senyum. Sungai Pahang is promising a memorable experience for everyone.
