Chilling waterfall (KKB)

Chilling waterfall - my second time here..this article is dedicated to Lern, the ang mou guy who initiated this trip..its been almost a year since i last came to this fall..its perhaps one of the easiest waterfall to track to and yet the most beautiful one too..hardly unpolluted..but i seem to be seeing bits of scrap during my trip here recently..sighs.. The fun part about tracking to chilling is perhaps the 6 river crossings which u have to make before reaching the falls.. contrary to what ppl might think, it isnt that difficult actually..but i suggest that first timers go with supervision/take precautionary measures..Tracking during rainy season is a definite NO cos water levels rise up quickly whenever it rains..you might find yourself either stranded at any of the crossing (remember there are six crossings) or worse, flushed out of existence! So the rain factor makes it difficult to plan for a chilling trips..you know, the weather can never be predictable.. The water from Chilling makes its way to a water catchment area/resevoir by the way..the resevoir has a fantastic view-ill catch up on that a few articles from this one...











So, back to Chilling, tracking consists alot of attacking ferns..lol...and there is of course the 6 river crossings (see pic above)..The fact that the journey here needs river crossing is in fact a slight deterrent for ppl to come..which is great! why? - no pollution. In addition NO camping and fishing are allowed here..it is indeed tempting to fish here cos there are tons of fish, Kelah breed..interestingly, the fish can jump from lower cascade levels to the higher ones, against the current..just like what salmons do in the epic migratory upstream.













About the location, Chilling falls is located at Kuala Kubu Baru...somewhere on the way to Fraser's Hills.. i like this place alot...as in KKB..wide serene view of the reservoir at the foothills..fresh and cooling waterfall retreat along the way..and cool relaxing Fraser's Hill on top...but dont expect to cover all of them within a day..its not possible..Here are some photos for the record..Enjoy!
