Mt. Tahan in 5 days - Taman Negara National Park

Malaysian Adventure
Looking for an adventure in a different part of the world is not always easy. Having Michael as our guide gave us the opportunity not only to do White Water Rafting, Canyoning & Cave Exploration, but we also got a real sense of Malaysia as a culture.

Taman Negara straddles the interior border regions of Kelantan, Pahang & Terengganu, boasting a continuous evolution history that spans 130 million years. Owing to a state legislation in 1925, about 1,300 sq. km. of tropical jungle in its natural state was designated the Gunung Tahan game Reserve. In 1939, the three Sultans of the above-mentioned states declared the area a National Park. It was renamed King George V National Park. Following the nation's independence from the British in 1957, the park was officially given the name it goes by now.

Gunung Tahan (Mt. Tahan), The trail leading up peninsular Malaysia's highest peak is 55 km. from the Taman Negara Resort. The climb is strenuous and demands sound physical and mental fitness.
