Some descriptions of the activities which you can enjoy while in Taman Negara :

 

A Night in The Hide (Taman Negara)
It is well worth spending a night in one of the wildlife observation hides, even if only to sample the rich variety of forest sounds. All except Bumbun Cegar Anjing are built overlooking saltlicks, where plant-eating animals come to supplement their mineral intake.

 

A Visit To Orang Asli Settlements (Taman Negara)
"Orang Asli" simply means "original people" in the Malay language. The Orang Asli live a nomadic lifestyle in Taman Negara, calling themselves Batek. The Batek are a race of people, gentle, short in stature, dark-skinned and with tight curly hair. Their settlements are found along the trails. Some settlements are accessible by boat.

 

Cave Exploration (Taman Negara)
Gua Teliga (Ear Cave) has rock formation in the shape of an ear. Gua Kepayang and Gua Daun Menari (Dancing Leaves Cave) are some of the few limestone outcrops that you can explore along with animals and insects that live in the caves.

 

Distance from Mutiara Taman Negara :

Gua Telinga - 2.6 km

Gua Kepayang - 17.7 km

Gua Daun Menari - 20.9 km

 

Fishing (Taman Negara)
Fishing is one of the main attractions in Taman Negara. Fishing permits issued to visitors cost RM10.00 per rod and apply only to the waters of Sungai Tahan below Lata Berkoh and Sungai Keniam below Kuala Keniam Kecil. Fishing tends to be best in the drier months of February to April and June to August.

Shooting The Rapids (Taman Negara)
Travelling upstream on Sungai Tembeling from Kuala Tahan is an exhilarating experience. One must be prepared to get drenched as the boat has to negotiate 7 sets of rapids. The journey to Kuala Trenggan takes about 45 minutes. Kuala Trenggan is 9.1 km from Mutiara Taman Negara.

Jungle Trekking (Taman Negara)
Jungle treks of various duration, some up to nine days, are possible. Trekking requires considerable preparations and a guide must be taken on all long trekking journeys. Although challenging, the jungle treks prove to be an equally rewarding authentic jungle adventure. 

Bukit Teresek (Taman Negara)
Enjoy the panoramic views of Gunung Tahan and the forest canopies that cover the hills and verdant valleys at the hilltop. This 334 metre hill can be reached within 45 minutes. Bukit Teresek is 1.7 km from Mutiara Taman Negara.

 

Lata Berkoh  (Taman Negara)

A spectacular cascade that marks the limit of easy navigability on the river. There is a deep pool

below the cascade and a rocky area overlooking the rapids. An ideal site for a picnic. Lata Berkoh is 8 km from Mutiara Taman Negara.

 

Gunung Tahan  (Taman Negara)

Climb Gunung Tahan, the highest peak in Peninsular Malaysia - a challenge that demands physical

fitness and intense willpower along with good equipment and a guide. Trail is 55 km from Mutiara

Taman Negara.

 

Four Steps Waterfall  (Taman Negara)

The eastern flanks of Gunung Tahan and Gunung Gedong drop off very sharply into the headwaters of Sungai Tahan. One of the tributaries in the Ulu Tahan plunges and cascades spectacularly down the mountainside in what is known as the Four Steps Waterfall. The waterfall is 50 km from from Mutiara Taman Negara.
