Semai族是马来西亚半岛18个原住民种族之一。而Ulu Geroh也是Semai族人的家园。现在在Ulu Geroh有一个生态旅游计划,重点着重在莱佛氏花及Raja Brooke Birdwind蝴蝶的保育。这里其中一个旅游景点就是Damak瀑布。

 

要前往Ulu Geroh就要先来到Gopeng,然后再转入Sungai Itak路。这时会经过一座沉香树种植园。

 

Home to the Semai people, one of the 18 indigenous people known collectively as Orang Asli (or Original People), Ulu Geroh is currently the base for a community-based ecotourism project highlighting the conservation of the Rafflesia flower and the Rajah Brooke Birdwing butterfly. One of the tourist spot is Damak Fall.

 

To reach Ulu Geroh, 1st have to come to Gopeng. Then turn into Jalan Sungai Itak and passby a Gaharu plantation.

在Pintu Padang村路口有清楚的路牌指示前往Ulu Geroh。继续往内行驶,经过许多的果园,度假村及油棕园。而且路有些狭窄,无法让两辆车同时交替而过。

 

Clear roadsign. Just drive all the way in till Ulu Geroh. Passby alot of orchards, oil palm plantation & small resorts. Road is narrow and only passeble by a car.

抵达Ulu Geroh,森林小径就在村子的尽头。森林小径可说是非常明显,只要随着主要小径,应该不会迷路。但如果没信心自己闯进去,可在村里聘请导游带路。

 

Reached Ulu Geroh, the trailhead is located at the end of the village. The jungle trail is very clear, just stick on the main trail, basically won't get lost. If someone not confident can always hire a guide from the village.

约30分钟步行,终于抵达Damak瀑布。如要更好的观赏瀑布,可渡过小河来到这大石面上。附近还有个小营地。
