The Pertak Waterfalls...

"To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon the verdant green hills is the most perfect refreshment..." - Jane Austin

(Having a dip in the cool water)

After the Sungai Selangor Reservoir there is a side road leading to Kg Pertak, an Orang Asli settlement. We drove through the Orang Asli village and paid a small fees to enter the waterfalls area. At the end of the tarmac road, we parked our car and hiked uphill until we reached a suspension footbridge across a small stream.

If you follow the steep and uneven jungle trail, which is slippery when wet, you will reach a ramshackle bridge over Sg Luit. A few hundred meter after the Sg Luit crossing there is a fork. The right trail leads to the Sg Luit falls, Bukit Kutu and Lata Medang. The other trail leads to Lata Jebus.

Any trails you choose, you will not be disappointed. There will be beautiful waterfalls at the end of the trails.
