Durian Perangin瀑布位于Gunung Raya北方的山脚下,是一道共有5层的瀑布。而Gunung Raya是Langkawi岛上最高的山峰,高881米。离Kuah镇仅16公里,如要到这瀑布,还是租车自行最方便。

 

瀑布的入口处设有几间小店铺贩卖零食和纪念品,也有个宽大的停车场。

Durian Perangin Waterfalls is a 14-tier waterfall cascading down the slopes of Gunung Raya, on the northeastern part of Pulau Langkawi. At 881m, Gunung Raya is the highest peak on Langkawi island. At 881m, Gunung Raya is the highest peak on Langkawi island. 

 

It is located about 16 kilometers from Kuah Town. The best way to come here is by renting a car and driving yourself there.

 

The park is well developed.  A moderate size of carpark and some sourvenier shops were built in front of the entrance.

从这个入口只需走一小段的路就可以抵达Durian Perangin瀑布第一阶瀑布。

 

A short distance of walkway and pavillion was built at the lower reaches of Durian Perangin Fall.

公园里建有齐全的设备,如厕所和这座吊桥。可悲的是,部份的设备都缺乏打理,尤其是木条制的步道都损毁了。

 

You can find basic facilities in the park including clean toilet and this suspension bridge, but sadly some of the facilities are in bad condition, especially the plank walk.

这就是第一层Durian Perangin瀑布。假日期间,这里可是附近居民和小孩戏水最佳地点。

沿着溪流旁梯级往上爬去就会看到更多的瀑布。

 

Climbing up the path along the side of the cascades is bringing you to the upper falls.

第二和第三阶的瀑布,瀑布都被植物遮挡着。这里并没有很好的地点观看瀑布,因为梯阶旁的石壁都非常潮湿和长满了苔藓,走在上面不是很明智。

 

This is the 2nd & 3rd tiers of Durian Perangin Fall, lot of vegetations are blocking the view of fall. There's no good view point here, coz the slippery rock surface is not safe to walk on.

第四层Durian Perangin瀑布就在梯阶的尽头处。

瀑布下方有一个较深的水池,适合谙水性的人玩乐。清凉的水流总是叫人难以忘怀。探访Durian Perangin瀑布最佳时间就是每年的年尾,干旱季节就没那么吸引了。

 

至于第五层瀑布,据说是需要攀爬森林小径再往上爬去。这一次应为时间关系,我们没能前往。

 

There's a big pool under the waterfall, suit for swimming. A refreshing cold splashing is always memorable. Still, the good time to visit Durian Perangin is in end of the year.

 

The 5th fall is not easy accessible. Due to time is not consent, we leave it for the next time visit.

留念。

 

Say cheese!
