Going to a newly-discovered waterfall in Sri Gombak continued



The newly-opened settlement was actually opened by the friend leading us up here and his group of friends who call themselves the Zero Team.


The land around is owned by a member of the group since 20 years ago but it was only opened 5 months ago when the group was inspired to a find a nice getaway from modern life.


It was opened in stages. Two weeks ago while going further into the jungle they found a nice waterfall.


After some time talking to the group at their settlement which they've decided to call as Kampung Tauhid me, family and friend started to make the walk to the waterfall.





The path was slippery at many parts. It has been raining intermittenly the last few days.






At times we have to climb.



Soon enough we arrived at the said waterfall, the one the group found 2 weeks ago.






It might not be a big one but it was enough to have a decent refreshing bath.



We were told that is the 1st one in a series of waterfalls they've discovered later.


Some of us decided to climb up further to check it out...






I did not take pictures at every stage but rest assured we've went up all 7 waterfalls. In fact I pressed on further just to make sure if there is any more waterfall up there. Glad to say that this is a series of what could be said to be virgin waterfalls. Who would have thought they have such a place at Sri Gombak, a bustling residential area at the edge of KL?

  1. How long it takes to walk from the car park? Is it open for public?

  2. The waterfall is open to public while the car park is within private land. You can park your car and walk through, just be respectful of the people who settle there. After all its the normal thing to do when you walk into anyone's neighbourhood. You'd expect the same if a stranger happens to pass near your house what more if people actually walk on your lawn.

    You can do brisk walk in about 10 minutes and reach the 1st waterfall. Leisurely walk should be around 20 minutes bearing in mind that the path could get slippery and muddy after rain. While it is possinble to drive a 4WD all the way to the 1st waterfall this is not advisable. Because a 4WD tends to mess up the path and this is inconsiderate to other visitors.
