The Kota Tinggi Waterfalls

The southern part of Peninsula Malaysia is rather flat. In fact it is not exactly "flat" as a sheet of paper. The terrain here is rather unique. Though in totality, you may consider this huge spread of land, a plain. But it is flat land with unending "folds". Just like a blanket of giant "waves". That is the characteristic of the terrain synonymous with Johore Then, in this large piece of "flat" a stand alone cluster of hills sprouted out. the tallest of the peak, Muntahak only 634 meters tall. A second peak to the east, Panti - 481 meters. Panti is very well-known to Singaporean as a haven for forest wild birds. In fact, one of the best rivaling the famed Frasers Hills for Birds. This cluster of hills is responsible for trapping the moistures flowing in the south of Malaysia. While the two hills are not tall, they did a marvelous job in retaining enough waters for the few small rivers. One of which is the one flowing through Kota Tinggi Town.

The Kota Tinggi Park is indeed a well placed. In this area of no hills seen for miles. Right at the foot of this one lone clusters, a small waterfall was conveniently created.

 

Such a wonderful and scenic destination. Long ago developed, the Park has long reached  it peak of evolution. Here is a scene at the car park. The surrounding tree and virgin forest remind visitors they are in the wilderness.

Outside the Park and the river continues on its way to the sea. This is the stretch at the area of the car park.

Continuing from the car park area, the main path or only path through the Park. The picnic area is here! The crowd in the water

 The choice spot - marred by buildings in future.

 

 The old scene -Waterfall, river and rocky bank.

 The choice spot - please do not marred it by more buildings in future. Here imagine a Karaoke machine

A beautifully done terraced waterfalls - to make up for the lack of more beautiful waterfalls

Just a view of the crowd. City folks at ease with.

Every one looking for choice spot. Children having fun time in this wilderness.

 Not a bad day's reward for a little bit of efforts.
