"Reaching the Cemerong fall is quite an expedition because of its remoteness and lack of signage. From Kuantan you follow the Inland Highway to Kuala Terengganu. About halfway you will pass a small river, the Paka river. Take the first road to your left. Coordinates of the junction are N 04° 35.854' E 103° 12.542' From this junction it is about 30 km on a good tar road to the Entrance of the Recreation Park. From the coastal Highway you can cross over to the Inland one at Kemanan or Dungun Near to the carpark, a trail follows the river downhill. Hidden in thick forest you will find a few very attractive waterfalls in a steep ravine (be careful!). There is a nice place to camp nearby. At the left side of the Lower Fall a trail starts uphill. In the beginning it is cemented. The stream is very quiet here and there are beautiful buttressed trees. Do NOT cross the stream on the new over-sized bridge. Keep following the left side of the stream. The trail becomes less easy, but a suspension bridge and ropes help a lot. After about 1.5 hour you reach the bottom of the upper fall. And an impressive fall it is. Difficult to estimate the height, must be more than 250 meter. From the bottom of the fall it is not possible to climb to the top. Maybe the top can be reached by crossing the new bridge, and following the trail to the Gunung Berumbun".http://www.waterfallsofmalaysia.com/72cemerong.php

Wow! What a great scenery! From your article, Lata Cemerong seems like quite dangerous but for nature lovers, who cares right? It will be nice to be there someday, to see God creation by myself. I really hope you can add some articles about Rantau Abang, especially the Turtle Sanctuary. Thanks for info Pappy!

assalamualaikum..hai pappy..
I am glad that you wrote about this place. Acctually, i am not from Terengganu. But the truth is, i like waterfalls very much. Even though i have never visit that place yet, i think this is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Malaysia. Before i study here in UiTM, i've been visit Terengganu with my friends and teachers when i was in form 6. sadly, we have no chance to visit Lata Cemerong because we were in rush. I hope this time i have a chance to visit with my new friends to see the beautiful of the nature. that's all. Thank you.

I've been there with my uncle's family last 2 semester but for a few minutes. On that time there is too many visitor.
Lata Cemerong is a best place to picnic because of the nice scenery and great waterfall.
I heard that this place also has killed too many people. Am i right?
I heard it from my uncle and friends.
