Tibang Falls is a vertical single drop fall with a medium sized pool. The horseshoe shaped pool is sandy and deep at certain spots suitable for swimming. It is also known as Ayer Manik to local OS. Access to the waterfall is now much easier with better road infrastructure leading to the Kg Tibang village.

Head to Slim Village Police Station as the landmark. Ulu Slim region can be reached from the north via Slim River town or from the south via Behrang Ulu. Near the police station, there is a T-junction.(Image 1) Take the junction heading in to Kolam Air Panas Ulu Slim. Keep to the main road and proceed straight till arriving at the next T-junction.(Image 2) Take the left junction in, the right junction goes to Pos Bersih. Along the way, visitors will pass D' Pulau Tibang. It has a shady riverside campsite with basic facilities. After passing the campsite, there is another forked junction.(Image 3) Keep to the left without crossing the bridge to Kg Tibang. There is very few parking spots at Kg Tibang, most of the houses are build quite close to the main access road. Visitors are advised to park outside the village by the road shoulder or at the open field clearing near the entrance of the village. Park without obstructing passing vehicles.

Proceed by foot pass the Kg Tibang village into the rubber estate. There are many trail junctions in this area. Keep left and proceed uphill.(Image 4) At the next junction where there is a large fallen tree on the left, take the right path. The waterfall is close by and can be accessed by two ways. Either from the bottom via the stream or from above the falls where visitors have to cross the river and come back down from the opposite side. From the top, visitors will have to carefully climb down a short cliff to the base of the falls.(Image 5)

Misc. & Exploration Notes :
No waterfalls have been found upriver upon exploration. There are only many river cascades and a boulder cascade that isn't worth the effort. There is however a smaller cascade fall downriver of Tibang Fall as documented by Siang Hui. A 2 tier fall called Ayer Pawang by local OS.

"Rubbish exist when there is an imbalance of those willing to take action."

If you plan to visit this waterfall, do bring a plastic bag along. In the event there is rubbish left by irresponsible individuals, you can contribute and do our part to keep nature's paradise clean.
Thank you~
