Keliang Falls is a waterfall series where the main fall is a 2 tier cascade waterfall with a fan-like spread lower fall and a horsetail fall at the top. Pictured below is the main fall of the series but it is not the only waterfall with 5 more smaller sub-falls documented along the stream up to the highest level. Unfortunately none of the levels has a significant pool up to the highest level upstream where large boulders are stacked. This waterfall is NOT suitable for beginners due to the bushy trails and steep sections. Visitors are highly advised to engage a guide who is familiar with the region to visit this waterfall.

Keliang Falls

Head to Kalumpang town as the nearest landmark. From there head to the public park football field near a community hall (here) There are several parking spaces located nearby the adjacent chinese temple. Visitors can park here when there is no events going on at the temple. Ensure to park without obstructing passing traffic. Proceed by foot from here on.

At the nearby bridge is where the trailhead starts going thru a dual track road where the bushes are overgrown. (Image 1.) Follow this gravel road all the way in where it ends at a durian orchard entrance. Beside the orchard entrance near the stream is a trail covered with undergrowth where visitors will proceed up the hill pass a hill section with thick resam ferns. This area of the jungle is quite wild where even old logging trails have been completely covered by vines and thorny rattan trees. There are a few tricky sections where visitors will finally decent the steep hill down to the left towards the river where the waterfall will be visible.

For those keen on adventuring further, the other waterfall levels are documented below. There are non-existent trails to these waterfall levels as few venture into this area. Bushwhacking and river trekking will be required.
