Lata Berembun


Posted in Malaysia by admin - Oct 14, 2009

This powerful fall is only accessible by 4×4 wheel drive that takes you past verdant fruit orchards and plantations growing guava, durian and cocoa. Located almost 1000m above sea level and surrounded by thick forests, the water is icy cold. Lata Berembun is located halfway up the slopes of the massive 2000m Gunung Benom which is still mostly unexplored and has seen few climbers.

The Trip to Lata Berembun chiefly consists of a 5 hour ride from Johor Bahru to Kuala Lumpur City Centre and a 2 hour transfer to a small town, Raub. Along the way through small towns, we stop by a coffee shop for some local breakfast before proceeding, on our 4-wheel drive, for off-road, bumpy roller coaster ride through face-smacking tree leaves & branches, 45 degrees mud slopes and a refreshing 5m wide river. We then arrive at our campsite with the roaring waterfall right smack in our face.

The waterfalls offer refreshing waist-depth crosses and slides which can accommodate 5 people at one go and slide which are like those from Wild Wild Wet!
