GAPOI FALL

Along the road from Karak to Simpang Pertang there are several attractive waterfalls. One of them is the Gapoi Fall. The eastern slope of the Main Range is particularly wet, so these are perennial falls.To reach the fall follow the road from Karak to Kuala Pilah until after Gapoi. Just after a water filtration plant, a small road leads to an Orang Asli village.
In the rainy season the Gapoi river carries a lot of water and it may be problematic to cross it. But when we visited the fall, the crossing was easy. After crossing the river, a trail leads through sometimes thick undergrowth to the fall. Not more than 300 meters.
The waterfall is enclosed at both sides by steep rocky slopes. A nice pool invites for a swim.
