I don't know how to express this, but in the last Quarter of the year I can walk at night without any artificial light. Just the Moon and Stars. That's all. I can almost see everything and everything can see me too, including those the unknown.
Glad you get to enjoy the rainforest. Daintree australia - 180m years Borneo low land - 140m years Peninsula - 130m years Amazon 55m years. We can safely say, for a tropical country, malaysia has the oldest tropical rainforest in the world.
During the Sundaland era this Landmass is ONE and connected to the Sahuland aka Australia. The sea level is at least 300M lower and deepest at the Wallace Line that separate the Fauna BUT no stark differences with the Flora.
At the peak when you pointed out the location of a cave I wonder if you're pointing out Gua Kepayang? I did the hike to that cave in 2022 in the steaming hot humid weather, from the suspension bridge jetty our boats took us about an hour further upstream to another jetty and though there were chalets there there were no tourists on that day. We began our hike around noon and we took around 6 hours plus to reach Gua Kepayang after hiking around 9km. On the track we came across lots and lots of elephant dung some were black in color some grey and some had green grass sticking out so I wondered if we would run into the elephants on the track. During the evening our guides lighted a fire and told us the fire's smoke will let the elephants know there are humans inside so that they won't enter the cave, indeed the next morning we found elephant tracks outside the cave's entrance. Other unforgettable memory of the hike is the numerous leeches on the track and the dozens of bites I endured 😅
Personally I would train to withstand the hot and humid conditions and other than our own stuff like clothes, camping type floor mat, water we were given canned food like sardine, packets of cooking oil, vegetables, three X 1.5 liters of water bottles to carry in and one of my hiker friends helped to carry my portion as I was slow and holding up the group. The policy is if 1 hiker can't do it they have to abort the trip. We saw tapir footprints and so it's possible to have tigers there as they hunt tapir. On the second day on our boat trip back to Kuala Tahan we were water splashed on the boat and we visited the Orang Asli village too, the wood that they use to start fires is impressively light
Welcome to Malaysia national park aka Taman Negara 🇲🇾. It is very hot n dry season this year (el nino) even the river become shallow..if you love wildlife recommend visiting Kuala Gandah elephant sanctuary only 2,3 hours from KL 👌

True! Not a big difference between 180M years and 130M years - it's still in MILLION of years old.

Super cool experience 。。

Yes, it was +36-37 those days I went to Taman Negara. Thank you for the hint about Kuala Gandah, will consider for my next trip 👌
Great❤!
Orang asli is the original people in peninsula. In borneo, there is the pribumi like dayak, kadazan dusun etc etc.
Yes, there is a large diversity of them...
Wild animal in Malaysia mostly active in early morning and late everning. Maybe because hot and humid.
Yes, true...
Brother, you traveled to a special location that few Malaysians have been to.😊
Yes, Malaysia is HUGE, sooo many hidden gems there 😅
