Janda Baik
A Malay village in a valley southeast of Genting, with streams, orchards and forest guesthouses scattered throughout. Locals come here on weekends to camp and play in the water.
Janda Baik is a valley village beside the Karak Highway at about 600 meters above sea level, surrounded by rainforest and streams. Its cool climate, vacation homes, campsites and glass-house guesthouses draw many Kuala Lumpur residents on weekends, who come to swim in the streams, barbecue, hike and pick fruit. Main activities include wading in the streams, jungle trekking, and visiting bee farms and orchards. It makes a good half-day detour while driving up or down from Genting. Public transport is limited, so you will need a car or hired vehicle. After heavy rain, streams rise quickly, so never enter fast-moving water.
