1st Feb is Thaipusam and Federal Territory day. So, those of us that worked at KL and Selangor got a day holiday. I did not apply leave on Friday as I am running out of leave after Nepal trip. Thanks to Huay Mein and Ying that organized the Chiling Waterfall trip that fill up the time for the day. Our group consists of 11 persons and we went by 3 cars. Kok Yuen is our guide as he is the only person that been to this waterfall before.
All of us met at Rawang toll at 9.30am and headed to Kuala Kubu Bahru. After Kuala Kubu Bahru, we followed the road sign of Fraser Hill and by passed a beautiful dam. We stopped for a while at the dam for photos. About half an hour drive after the dam, we crossed a bridge and reached the starting of Chiling Waterfall trek. There is no signboard, but could see many cars parking beside the roads. The parking place is just right after the bridge.
From the parking place, we crossed the road and started to trek to our destination. There are some construction work going on to build a bridge and toilets. We trekked along the river. The trek is easy except need to cross the river for several times. Huay Mein is a good swimmer but she has problem balance herself when crossing the river. Ying need to beware of her slipper as it will easily float away. After almost an hour trekking, we reached the waterfalls. There are altogether 3 falls. We stopped at the 3rd waterfall for swimming. The waterfall is nice. It’s such as good place for relaxing. Surprisingly, there are a lot of fish there. Just throw the bread into the water, all the fish will come over. Fishing is prohibited in this area.
We were there for about 3 hours before retrace our way back. We reached PJ around 7pm and had dinner together at Seapark. Chiling Waterfall is the recommended place to spend for a day or even camp overnight. 3 things that I remembered for this day trip: laughter, shouts and chill ;)
