Located about 50 km from Kota Kinabalu, the waterfalls near the town of Tamparuli is accessible by easy hiking. There are 3 packages offered: A: a 8 km hike with 7 waterfalls; B: a 5 km hike with 3 waterfalls and C: a 3 km hike with 1 waterfall. I took package B (cost RM 23: RM 15 guide fee and RM 8 conservation fee). You can easily get water and food supply at the starting point. There is a clean changing room and toilet just nearby. Wear comfortable drifit clothing and good hiking shoes. Bring your swim gear for a nice cool dip in the pool at the Murug Turug waterfall. The enclosed pictures of waterfalls are: Murug Turug, Kionop, Piolungan, respectively.

There are a lot of steps to climb but its worth it. First waterfall is pleasant to look at. Then walk up more steps for 20 mins to next waterfall/rock pools is excellent. Bring swimming togs. Free of charge to enter. Only rm2 parking at entrance. Toilets and simple shops onsite.

The highlight of my visit to Sg Lembing! We had a hiccup with our hotel (OYO Jasa Resort) as they were supposed to book the tour and pick us up at the hotel at 5.30am. We drove to town around 5.50am, and stopped at the food court/market in town and there were loads of 4x4 trucks and people having breakfast. We just approached a random driver and joined the tour with another group for RM60 per person. We left at 6.45am from Sg Lembing town. Such an exciting off road bumpy ride with the 4x4. It is a safe ride so don't worry about that. Around 20 mins into the forest, we reached the sunrise point, and 45 mins later we reached the start of the trek. DO rent the rubber shoes from the Orang Asli (RM3) for 2 reasons 1. Amazing grip on the wet rocks 2. Keeps your running shoes clean and dry(slightly muddy and wet trek) After a somewhat easy hike(1 hour) we reached the waterfall. (You wont get wet during the trek, so dont need to bring a change of clothes unless you want to swim in the waterfall. We even managed to keep our socks dry) There was no rainbow on the day we visited as it wasnt sunny but the waterfall was majestic indeed. Our guide was kind enough to bring hot maggi cup and also hot milo there and we had such an amazing time! (Do bring your own snacks to relax at the waterfall) We reached Sg Lembing town at 12pm. Great tour for Rm60-70. Worth it!

Since Terengganu has several waterfalls that is a must to visit. We just had to stop by 1 of them. So we opt to go to Sekayu Waterfall. A very small hike from the parking lot to the waterfall. Around 15-20mins. The steps are not so steep either. So it's convenient for both the young and old. Dipping into the water is a must. Cool cold water but really refreshing. It wasn't that crowded either. So just nice. Clean but still with some rubbish laying around.
