Most people know about Lata Kinjang, the waterfall that can be seen from the North-South Highway. That this waterfall has a small brother is not well known. The Lata Yuk falls are located less than 500 meters from Lata Kinjang. Just before reaching the Kinjang hawker stalls, a small road to the right leads to an Orang Asli kampung.

Friendly kids in the Orang Asli kampung

At the end of this kampung, take one of the trails that follow the river. Orientation is not easy in these abandoned rubber plantations, try to keep close to the stream.

Some trees are still being tapped

About 500 meter after the Orang Asli village, you should reach the lower Yuk fall. This is more like a cascade. Unspoilt and no rubbish yet. Keep it that way!

The lower Yuk cascade

A vague trail to the right site brings you to the upper fall.

This is a real fall with a nice swimmingpool

When we visited this fall, it was already late in the afternoon, so we had not much time to explore. There should be more cascades and falls in the upper region.
