Chilling fall and Kolam Panas Tamu

Map of Chilling falls

The trip to chilling started when jensen post up the link (http://www.waterfallsofmalaysia.com/state.php?state_id=12Me) at FC club facebook, with the great experiences from the previous trips, we are getting addicted to the nature park in Malaysia. In fact, we are deeply needed to have some refreshment in our busy routine working life, to get along with the mother nature, feel the fresh air and more importantly to having some exercise. Jensen,Maggie and i decide to explore more and more waterfalls in Selangor, whereby we need to find some places which have adventurous trekking and nice views, in short, nature park with nice waterfall !!

The link posted by jensen, the chilling waterfall located at Kuala Kubu Bharu seems awesome and it's meet our consensus as well.They describes this as probably the most beautiful waterfall in Selangor, well, we really cant find any reason to ignore it Without any delays, we had contract each other to having a trip to get there at weekend. Me and jensen decide not to drive on this time and it's suppose FC maggie turns to drive her so called laoya car. Anyway, she said she was drove to genting before by using this car, me and jensen as kind as always pretend to believe although we know that she was lying. :)

Anyway, the things ends up with victim Jensen had to drive his car to KKB , she was success to get away from driving this time. As usual, we reach Jensen's house at 8.30 am, and depart to KKB at 9.00 am by heading towards Rawang, where we'll be exiting to take the old road to get to Kuala Kubu Bharu. It was a pleasant drive to be passing the Selangor Dam driving on the wide empty road and having the sun rise to greet us with it's warming embrace.

View along the road side

Soon we reached dumpster car park and gate to the fish sanctuary, this is the point were we parked our car. A short 15 minutes walk from the car we arrive at the fishery department building to register ourselves.Along the road, the sound of water splashing getting louder, we just cant wait to meet this waterfall. Everything seems running smooth for us, yeah, it was a good day indeed!

After the registration, we start our journey to finding the main stream of the waterfall. So we hiked, passing through a path between the bushes in to the jungle. Nevertheless, we are being overconfident in which we are heading to the wrong path, for some reason we are now on a path I don't know of, a path far from the river ( this is the nightmare begins !!). With the hot sunshine, we decided to continues the wrong path, passing thru the jungles and hike like mad to cross the small hills and finally we give up and decided to head back to way we start.

Exhausted, tired, sun burn , thirsty, these are the words clearly reflect our status when heading back, we start to blame each other to choosing the wrong path..haha. At the same time , we were fell down several times in the jungle due to we are wearing sandals to hiking. Guys, your miss the greatest ever superman show performed by Jensen!!! In which he fell down from the uphills like a superman,haha.A giant rock roll down from the hill. Finally, we get back the right way by asking right ppl.

All of us had exhausted !!

Finally found the right track

We have cross several rivers and trails and finally got to the upstream. The scene was awesome, as expected, we saw the giant waterfall. at up stream. We are all stare at the waterfall and amaze of it. Yeah, no doubt, this is the most beautiful waterfall i've been so far. All the tiredness, hungry and injured were paid off when reached here. As advise, the depth of the waterfall quite deep, it's bout 8 feets, anyone who don't know swim pls beware of it. We are got into the water. feel the coolest, and enjoy this greatest gift by mother nature.

We had cross a lots this kind of rivers

Views of Up Stream

After that, we headed back down hill to town. As according by Jensen, there is 1 more attractive place to visit which is Kolam panas Tamu. Everytimes i go to the hot spring, just curious where is the source. This hot spring is even hotter than hot spring nearby Sungai Congkak, i think should be 45-50 0C , our legs were just getting boiled there. Anyway, this place nice to visit and good especially for your health.

3 of us take photo at up stream and river side

We headed back around 4pm, the chilling falls worth to be visit after all although we had cross a lot of rivers and trails ,and using wrong pathway as well, but still, feeling great when reached there, we do enjoy the process to get to the up stream and more importantly, we had learn a lesson, whatever things we do, in order to success we must work hard.Have a great day!
