15 minutes walk from the headquarters, my kids had fun playing here. No crowd at all. The area was clean. Im not sure about the depth of the water here. Once in a while boats pass through the area to go to lata berkoh. Make sure to bring you permit along because the rangers sometimes come to make spot check

I found Lubok Simpon to be the most intriguing part of the forest (allowed area). There's a forest on both of the sides of the river, it looks straight of a fairy tale.

You don't need any guide or boat to go there, it's at most an hour hike from the main area. This is a popular spot for river bathing and swimming. When I went, there were no people around, I was all by myself. I took a very refreshing bath in the river.

The area itself gives you the vibes of something similar in LOTR, where Smégol kills his brother to get the ring.

It's highly recommended to visit.

Lovely place to take the boat to and hike up. The water is cool and very nice to swim in. Let yourself drift on the current. Jump of the rocks into the water and relax.

Just off a 5-hour hike and stumbled upon the charming Lubuk Simpon! It’s a stone’s throw from the main village, making it super accessible. The vibe here? Utterly peaceful. Think calm waters, lush greens, and a bunch of spots to just chill and soak in nature. But a heads-up – if you’re tempted to take a dip, check for swimming warnings first. And watch those stairs, they’re a bit tricky when wet. Overall, a perfect, lively little spot to cap off a day of adventure. Definitely a must-visit!

Lubuk Simpon -
Situated at Sungai Tahan in Taman Negara National Park Kuala Tahan, Pahang Darul Makmur, Malaysia.
It's easy to access from park entrance/Taman Negara Headquarters.
1. Boardwalk Trail - a short walk/hike, distance less than 1 km and duration of 15 - 20 minutes (one way).
It a loop that also leads up the hill to the viewpoint at Bukit Terisek (334 M asl).
2. Also can be reached by boat from the pier with the duration of 5 - 10 minutes.
Lubuk Simpon is the closest from the Taman Negara park entrance. Surrounded by greens tropical rainforest with amazing ambience, serene atmosphere and different climate conditions. Boats travelling upstream to Lata Berkoh will pass through this area.
The water is clean and clear, cool and fresh. The upstream of Sungai Tahan is the deepest part, normally after the heavy rains the colour of water is turning brownish and the river situation changes from time to time...
Please note that the darker of the spot surface the deeper (more than 3 m). Beware of the strong current water, it may drawn you into the river flow. You're advised to take a dip or swim at the shallow area along the river banks and respect the local culture.
Worth a look, mesmerising with good sightseeing...

Ab ins Nass nach einer anstrengenden Wanderung. Dschungel, Schmetterlinge, Schnellboote - hier ist alles dabei. Super Atmosphäre.
