waterfalls at Negeri Sembilan


Negri Sembilan is a hilly State. Large part of it occupied by the Main Range and some other rolling hills toward the coast. Most waterfalls are found on the western slopes of the Main Range. There are also a few in the rolling hills or isolated outcrops.

The Jeram Kedah falls are located in the Lenggeng Forest Reserve. Follow the trunk route nr 1 from Kajang southward, pass Sememyih and turn left on the N34 to Lenggeng. Just before you reach Ulu Berenang, you will find a road to Kg Jeram Kedah. Follow this road through nice countryside until the end.

Nice countryside

The first impression of the place is rather unfavorable. Remains of an old water pipeline and a ruined reservoir show that in the past there must have been a water catchment here. There are no facilities, you must scramble down to the river bed to reach the fall. Locals use the waterfall to take a bath and relax. Cross the stream and follow a trail to the left to reach the top of the fall.

The upper part of Jeram Kedah comes as an unexpected surprise. The river flows through a ravine, it is a quiet, unspoilt place, with a nice second fall. A perfect place to spend a few hours.
