Papan Recreational Forest Reserve

Papan · Kinta Valley

The reserve is a short drive from Papan town. Hill dipterocarp forest, a few trails, and a small waterfall that runs shallow enough to just sit in. There is a herb garden on the grounds as well. The road in takes you past old buildings and farmland and does not look like much, so first-timers tend to second-guess whether they are in the right place. Keep going. Most people who come to Papan for the heritage houses never find out this is here.

Important info
Good to knowOpen daily, 6am to 7pm. RM2 for adults, RM1 for under-18s, RM5 for non-citizens. Free if you are under 6, over 60, or OKU. The rocks around the water are slippery even where it is shallow, so watch your footing and watch the kids.
