Well maintained recreation park in Kedah
The beautiful series of waterfalls of Bukit Hijau can be reached easily from road 67. About 25 km from Baling, turn south at a clearly signposted junction. From here it is 12 km to the carpark of Bukit Hijau

The big entrance gate makes clear that this park can be busy on weekends.

A cemented path leads to the first fall, more a cascade

The large pool invites for a refreshing bath

Several waterfalls and cascades
A good walkway leads to the higher falls. In several places sturdy bridges have been built across the stream

At the top of the first cascades a first bridge is built

A view back under the bridge at the first cascades

Youngsters try to catch fish under the rocks

The second waterfall just before you reach the second bridge

This waterfall has a nice pool, but the slopes are too steep. Fences have been erected to avoid accidents

The upper falls also have very large and nice pools

After the end of the cemented walkway, a clear trail continues to the upper falls

The last fall is a beauty, with a very attractive pool

Beyond the last fall there is this dam.

The upper part of the trail requires some scrambling
