Kuala Tembeling Jetty & Tembeling River Cruise
Jeti Kuala Tembeling
The classic way into the park: a longboat up the Tembeling River for about 3 hours, passing rainforest, water buffalo and riverside villages.
Kuala Tembeling Jetty is about 16 km north of Jerantut. Longboats leave for Kuala Tahan at roughly 09:00 and 14:00 daily. The trip takes about 3 hours and costs roughly RM50 to 60 per person one way. Book in advance through a travel agency in Jerantut or at the jetty. Along the way you'll see towering rainforest on both banks, fishing villages, water buffalo and kingfishers, making it a far more memorable way in than the road. You can return by boat or take a bus. The sun on the water is strong, so bring a hat and a rain jacket.
Opening hours
Two daily departures, around 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM
