Over the Buaya Sangkut Waterfalls

Buaya Sangkut (local language meaning Stuck Crocodile) is one of the attractions of the Endau-Rompin National Park. Consists of five steps or tiers, this is one of the largest waterfalls in Malaysia.

I have visited this waterfall way back in 1995 and it was a hard 3-4 hour trek to reach from Kuala Jasin.









This is Kuala Jasin, where the Jasin river flows into the Endau river.







We made an emergency landing after low clouds rolled in fast just after we had left Kampung Peta. Had the low-cloud condition persists, we would have to spend the night here.

Ulu Geruntum

Chanced upon this location about a month ago. Nice waterfall and very friendly village of Orang Asli. There was no name given so I just referred to it as Geruntum Waterfall.







Native kids having their bath(?) and fun at the same time.







Mucking around with the zoom ring on the Canon EF-S 10-22mm gives you a motion-zoom effect.



Bath time over when big sis called them home.



The lady who was at the kitchen is so friendly. The kids here too are the friendliest OA kids I have came across.




Tiny mushrooms near the waterfall area.
