16km away from the city of Seremban, Ulu Bendul Recreational Park is a famous area in Negeri Sembilan out of the six parks that have been developed as ecotourism destinations. It has been popular as a leisure area since the 1920s with the surrounding forest reserve estimated to be approximately 130 million years old.
Camping is a well liked activity here because of it’s ease and availability of proper camp sites and related facilities. Most visitors here like to camp for a night before heading on to hike Mount Angsi. It is 825 metres tall and takes 2-4 hours to climb but is well worth it for the breathtaking view of the green landscapes at the top of the hill.
The other activities which can be enjoyed here include jungle trekking, fishing and swimming in the river that runs through the park. There is also a dedicated pool where you can swim in the fresh water that runs down from the mountains.
Camping is also a local’s favourite thing to do in Ulu Bendul Recreational Park as there are safe camping sites provided in its area. If you wish to stay here without camping, you can alternatively rent a chalet nearby with provided facilities for you to fully explore the Ulu Bendul Recreational Park. Be it with your family or friends, a trip here can take you away from the busy city life for a while!
