This national park is one of the best known and the oldest national parks in Malaysia. It is famous for its rainforest and its easy way to get around. The park Haedquarter is just acros the river from the village Kuala Tahan. This is where most people enter the park, but there are also three other offical entrys. Admission is 1RM, a camera permit 5RM.
The river boat leaves from Kuala Tembling Jetty at 2:00pm for Kuala Tahan (Park Headquarters) and takes about 2-2 1/2 hours (25 RM). There is also a bus service but the boat ride is likely to be one of the prettiest parts of the trip. Some tour operators run round trip services from Kuala Lumpur to park accommodatio with return (Check Ping Anchorage and NKS). Several local busses leave Jerantut for Kuala Tahan (ca 1,5h, 6 RM) last one at 5:00pm
