Malaysian Jungle, day two. Our goal is hiking to the top of the peak behind our resort for a view of the rest of Taman Negara national park. The view below was our reward for a very sweaty two hours of trekking. The way down was not much easier then the way up.
Looking down the stairs from the resorts entrance you can see all of the stores and restaurants that float along the river.
Exactly one month before I was born flood waters here reached 74 meters. The image above was taken from same spot I took the one below. That is an enormous amount of water, hard to imagine. The village from my previous posts, Kuala Lipis, was wiped out by a similar flood in 1926.
This gallery is a few images of the amazing plant life we saw along the trail and our boat trip on one of the small tributaries near the resort.
