Kenong Rimba Park, a vast 128 square
kilometer of unspoilt tropical forest is situated in the Kuala Lipis district. Spanning across the Kenong Valley and Sungai Kenong. Kenong Rimba Park shares a common eastern and northern boundary Taman Negara.
Although accessible and open to public, most of the park remains unexplored. In its unspoilt wilderness, visitors cannot fail to appreciate the last jungle tranquility, tumbling cascades and clear streams, its variety of flora and fauna and myriad sounds of bird and insects. It's an opportunity to see life on earth as it has simply been for all that time.
