A main train line runs through from Kuala Lipis to Kota Bharu and Tumpat. A car or 4-wheel drive vehicle is a great advantage. Bring a poncho. Little equipment available on the spot, so bring your own for camping, caving, etc. For local transport use trains, or arrange with residents to share a lorry, car or motorcycle.
Local towns offer budget accommodation, eating places and shops for varied supplies.
Wide range of wildlife of all sizes. Along Sungai Nenggiri, saltlicks and signs of elephants and Gaur. Good birdwatching almost anywhere in forest or forest edge. Caving in many limestone areas.
