Introductions

Kenong Rimba Reserve is a rare find. Much of Malaysia's lowland forests have been or are in the midst of being cleared for urban development and palm oil plantations. However, there are several splotches of primary jungle that has been retained for the specific purpose of fauna and flora research like those preserved at the Krau Reserve in Pahang and Endau-Rompin National Park that borders Johore and Pahang. Krau Reserve is strictly kept for research purposes and only a small section of Endau-Rompin is accessible to the public whilst Kenong Rimba, a well-preserved lowland forest reserve, on the other hand, is open to everyone (except illegal loggers and poachers! but alas, there are plenty of these groups of thieves and rougues around especially in the reserves)

Many travelers interested in experiencing the wonders of the rainforest jungle are realizing the importance of this relatively untouched, intriguing piece of jungle land possibly with much help from the Lonely Planet, Rough Guide etc. It is not difficult to imagine why. This relatively small (about 128km sq) but significant reserve park shares its northern border with Taman Negara. Thankfully, facilities are kept as basic as possible so that visitors can truly sink into a bit of roughing out at the campsites. There are only 4 basic chalets (2 to each chalet) and a longhouse that can accommodate 60 persons. Water is supplied from nearby streams and there is no electricity supply. So don't bother bringing your laptops and handphone chargers etc. There are also no baggage porters. Each person carries his or her own belongings and food ration enough for the number of days spent in the jungle.
