The new official Gunung Ledang trail head is located at Taman Negara Gunung Ledang Operation Centre (more info here), which is 17km from Tangkak town. There’s a cascade at the backyard of the Operation Centre .
Take road no. 23 from Tangkak towards Sagil. After Sagil town, prepare to turn left when you see the Gunung Ledang signboard. The tar road is straight all the way and ends at the Taman Negara Gunung Ledang Operation Centre. This access is actually commonly used for hiking up Gng Ledang mountain. Visitors have to register before entry at the office and there is an entrance fee of RM5 imposed. This waterfall is suitable for beginners to visit.
Entrance of the operation centre.
The building of Taman Negara Gunung Ledang Operation Centre
Just follow the signboard and the cemented path to the left of the building.
Climb up this staircase, Ayer Puteh Fall is at the end.
The Ayer Puteh Fall, the fall will dry up during dry season.
A nice rest hut has been built beside the waterfall.
Exploration notes : Turns out while the waterfall volume does reduce drastically during dry seasons there is actually sufficient water upriver. 2 man-made dams have diverted much water away for human consumption. Diverting from a left junction near the start of the Gng Ledang hiking trail, an unofficial trail leads to the stream where 2 waterfalls can be found. The landscape is treacherous hence beginners are not advised to attempt this.
The waterfall found upriver is pictured below.
