A crystal clear stream flows from the top of the hill, its descent marked by a series of cascades. In the park, children frolick in the pool and play by the river bank. Picnickers are a frequent sight. To the less adventurous unwinding at the river bank while enjoying the cool, balmy breeze would be an excellent way to relax. One of the best things to do is perhaps to take off one's shoes and step right into the knee-high freezing streams. One will readily attest to the sensational experience of the soft sands caressing the feet. One of the signboards catches one's attention. It reads "Non-Halal food are not allowed!" It is believed that some spirits living on the hill "Orang Bunian" as the Malay called it, are the guardians spirits. As a sign of respect to these spirits, visitors are thus adviced not to bring along these food. A suspension foot bridge was built; providing views from 50m up. 

The bridge is most attractive when it is viewed from beneath. Through the canopy of thick tropical foliage the effect of the dappled light create a serene ambience with which to soothe away one's cares. The local folks unfolded many folklure about the park. It is generally believed that the park was once a battlefield between the Japanese soldiers and the Malayan Communists during World War II. Many bombs were launched from FRIM, about a kilometer away, killing many communists. Depressions and indentations left by these bombs are still visible. Thankfully, the bombs fell on the not so prominent spots of the park, leaving the waterfall, streams and hill intact. There is a big tunnel left behind by the communists. The tunnel is believed to have extended to a hill near Seremban. It is so wide that even a truck could pass through. An exploration was done by the State Forest Department a few years ago. Things like chairs, tables, cooking-pots, sewing machines and lamps were discovered in the tunnel. For serious trekkers it would be an exciting place waiting to be explored. The park is blessed with many fine specimens of the rain forest trees, namely Crytoxylum spp, Tempace triptera, and Paklo spp, providing an excellent place for an intensive botanical study.
