The Ulu Langat region, the backyard of KL, is well known for its many waterfalls. The most popular are the Gabai falls, but there are many more. To visit the Lawing falls you go to Kg Hulu Langat and follow the signboards to the Gabai falls. Don't take the exit to Gabai, but continue a few km until the small Kg Sg Lui where you turn left.
After about 500 m you turn left again, near a fish pond. Follow this road until the end, near a bridge.

Here you turn left again
End of the road
Park your car and follow a clear trail until an isolated Orang Asli house. Turn left, there are a few vague trails, you must try to come closer to the stream. It will take about one hour from the bridge until the falls. You will pass a few nice cascades on your way.
Follow the clear trail

After a while the trail follows the river
The Lawing falls consist of a few tiers. The main fall has a nice pool. The surroundings are pristine and unspoiled. Keep it that way!

Waterfalls can be dangerous ! Always take care about your safety

I came to this fall a couple of months back carrying my baby daughter. The toughest bit was the drive from the road to the beginning of the walk. Lots of fallen branches that could block the road at any time. Fot the walk the directions on this site are very good. After the Orang Asli house (whose occupants I met) it can be a bit tricky but there are ribbons on the trees that mark the route. The journey back down was a little confusing, things never look the same the other way round!

i visited this place last december. i cound not find the right Lawing Fall but i accidently found another quite similar to this fall. There was no trail to this fall, i had to follow the sound of rushing water on my right hand side after 15 minutes walk along the main trail. Had to go trough some ratten trees. pls watch my video clip www.youtube.com/watch?v=YA8V7WyrIYU

Dear Moderator, can you descripte the trail in details? whereby my friends and I went there and we only reach on empty land where there is an abandon traditional malay tyle house on left hand side.There is a trail, by following the trails for 10 minute we did reach a junction and we did try on both way and seem both meet to death end.
Btw..for those interested, the forest did full of leech.
