Accessibility: Trekking
In the light to the end of the Covid-19 Movement Control Order, we went to Hulu Langat to see if the waterfall is open to public.
As we expected its has been opened, and publics already went there with their family in a social distancing manner.
The access to the Lepok Fall is part of the fun.
Leaving KL and the traffic jams behind, the forest of Hulu Langat is a pleasant surprise. The small village of Hulu Langat is a good place for breakfast, before continuing to Kampung Pangsun.
Just before reaching this Kampung, turn left to Lepok. This small road ends after a few km at a place where you can park your car.
From here you cross a stream and start walking. This is a region of Durian orchards and bamboo forest. We hiked slow and steady to tale a pleasure walk in the forest
The trek is going uphill all the time but not in a strenuous way. Pleasant forest and ginger flowers abound here.
It will take about two hours to cover the 4 km to the fall, with a 350 meter gain in altitude.
Generally the track is clear, don’t take the sidetracks which end in Durian farms
When you reach a disused water pipeline, you know that you are on the right way.
The track follows more or less the pipeline until a water catchment basin is reached. From here it is not far to the waterfall.
It is a very attractive waterfall, with a deep pool for swimming. In nice unspoiled jungle surroundings. A perfect target for a day trip.
The trail ends here. If you want to reach the top of the fall, you will have to scramble up at the right side of the fall.
Check out the video below to see how happy we was for having a first outdoor session since the MCO was introduced.
