Lepoh Waterfalls, or Air Terjun Sungai Lepoh, are nestled in a lush green setting within Selangor’s Hulu Langat district, an area known for its nature and outdoor activities.
Address
43100 Hulu Langat, Selangor
Details
Air Terjun Sungai Lepoh is an easily accessible hiking, waterfall and picnic site located in Selangor State Park, just ten minutes’ drive from the popular Hutan Lipur Sungai Congkak and Gunung Nuang Recreational Forest as well as thirty minutes’ drive from the equally famous Gabai Waterfalls.
The area the waterfalls are in is surrounded by homestays, adventure companies and mostly simple nature resorts, all easily spotted during the hour-long drive it takes to get there from Kuala Lumpur city center.
A long street filled with shop houses and more adventure outfits leads to the starting point of a ~1.5 hour hike that takes you inside the beautiful forest where the waterfalls are situated.
Clearly-marked signs are in place throughout the easy to moderate trail, which contains a steep section that may slow down even the fittest of hikers.
Lepoh Waterfalls are particularly known for its natural ‘slide’, which is a large, flat and extremely smooth rock formation that visitors often use to glide into a small lagoon near the bottom.
There are also cozy gazebos and huts, perfect for family picnics, available for rent near the entrance of the hike.
Price/entrance fees
There is an entry fee of RM1.00 that is collected when you register before beginning your hike. Separate parking charges apply.
Opening hours
8.00am – 7.00pm
