Warning! This is a very long post.
Chiling Waterfalls are probably the most beautiful waterfall in Selangor. That's what it was written in this website - http://www.waterfallsofmalaysia.com/51chiling.php . I can't claim it to be true, neither can I deny it because, if my memory serves me right, I have never been to another waterfall in Selangor, so I can't compare. On its own, the Chiling waterfalls are simply breathtaking. If you are looking for a relaxing place to chill (pun intended) out, this is the place to be. It reminds me so much of those zen-like pictures I always see in magazines.

Early last month, Steve, Mctc and I did a recce to these falls. We were so disappointed to find that they close on Mondays.
When our Ledang climb was postponed from May 1st (Labour's Day in Malaysia) to May 23rd, we grabbed the chance of going again and subsequently called all our friends.
Some responded no but the majority was keen to go. We had a different group altogether.
There were 13 of us.
Eddie and Christine, together with their 12 year-old son Christopher. They almost never go for nature trips like these.
Steve and Douglas, both loved diving.
Edwin and Danny who had been on our Kinabalu trips before.
Matt and Minch.
Mctc, who just discovered the beauty of nature since we brought him to Bukit Panorama in Sungai Lembing, Pahang.
King Keong, whom we met at the Bukit Panorama but never exchanged contacts.. Rach was searching for blogs on this hill and she stumbled upon his blog. She commented on his blog and somehow exchanged contacts.
Rach and I.
The Seremban people met at Blossom food court at 6.45AM. Mctc and I were about 7 minutes late. The rest of them were having a cup of drink or a light meal when we reached there. We started our journey at 7AM.

The signboard stated that they charged a big bowl/plate for RM3.50 and small - RM3.00. Since we didn't say whether we wanted big or small, Eddie asked the lady how she knew whether her customers wanted big or small. She replied rather in a saucy way.. she would be her own judge. She would give according to what she felt the person might want.. as long as everyone was "happy happy". (She said these in Cantonese except the word "happy happy")







The front people went straight ahead when someone from the back yelled... keep left, keep left. This is our first mistake.














We found a shaded spot to put of knapsacks. I brought a disposable plastic tablecloth and used that as a "mat" for our bags.
Then one by one we tested the water. It was very cold.
Some 20 minutes later, 6 of us stayed back while the other 7 went up to the higher falls. I didn't want to go up because I thought there was no way of reaching it and we could only see it from a distance. Later, Steve said that, that was the middle falls, the one that we could at the lower falls too. There is a 3rd fall called the upper falls. They were able to reach there and swim too.
I passed Steve my camera.

My battery ran out after this shot.
Water therapy - No pictures because we were camera-less.
I was just sitting on the rocks. Minch slept on the rocks, allowing the rushing water to flow onto her shoulders. Christine introduced facial massage. She put her face onto the rushing water and had her face throughly cleansed by mineral water. Later they were using small rocks to scrap away all the dead cells from their bodies.

1.28PM - Steve and gang returned from the upper falls. I changed my batteries as soon as he gave me back the camera.










The KL people left immediately because one of them had another appointment. The Seremban people went to Kuala Kubu Bharu town to have a late lunch.

We reached home at 7.20 (or thereabouts), had a drink in Blossom Heights and arranged to have our dinner at Sg Ujong Club. The club was promoting Japanese meals.. but according to Minch who loves Japanese food, she said that it didn't taste Japanese at all.
All in all, this was a good trip, an enjoyable one with good company and hey, I get to exercise, while having fun. :)
BTW - no leeches along the way, otherwise I would have mentioned. :)

i've been to this waterfall before and i think it is one of the nicest waterfall i've been to. the trail to the waterfall is also very interesting as one needed to cross river many times.
Wouldn't mind going to another waterfall. Any recommendation?
