After exchanging a few emails with the group, we figured most of us wanted a trek where we could just nuah (relax!) in the waterfalls, and isn’t too physically demanding. In the past, we always chose Lumbong (Pelepah) falls for a quick no-need-to-plan weekend getaway, but word has it that now there is a need of a permit (which costs money!) to enter the grounds, and we are not allowed to camp overnight there anymore.

So, the discussion brought us to the idea of exploring Ken waterfalls in Kota Tinggi. According to the BOAC website (that seems to be the only agency doing a trip there now), it seems to be a fairly easy trek – sounds even easier than Pelepah, with less than an hour of uphill trekking.

But the issue is that there doesn’t seem to be any resources online about where exactly the trail is, the administrative procedures (if necessary), how to get there and the condition (or availability) of a campsite.

Anyone been to Ken waterfalls before? Care to share some details?
