"Very good camping ground. Clean and tidy. Easy booking thru website. Friendly staff. Walking distance to food attraction at Kampung Sedia Tanah Rata. Surely will repeat camping here again and again..."

"Taman Eko Rimba Parit Falls in Cameron Highlands is a lovely spot for a quick nature escape. The trail is easy and beginner-friendly, making it perfect for young kids around 6 years old. We spent about 30-45 minutes exploring, and the ladders and pathways were well-maintained, which added to the convenience.
However, the experience was dampened by the state of the river, which was unfortunately not clean and had noticeable rubbish. It would be great if the management could take steps to improve cleanliness and raise awareness about maintaining the area. With better upkeep, this place could truly shine!"
