Learn skills needed to survive in the wild with this tour to Endau Rompin National Park and experience the jungle like never before!
Day 1 – Bekok Office / Endau Rompin (Selai) National Park
Once you’ve arrived at Bekok, we will transfer by a 4x4 to Lubok Merekek campsite to begin our adventure. Make sure to have your lunch by yourself before we depart for the campsite. Once we’re at our destination, you will be taught the right way to set up your tents at the campsite. At approximately 3:00 pm, we will commence our trekking expedition from Lubok Merekek to Pandan Waterfalls, passing through Lubok Tapah along the way. The experienced guide will teach you how to identify edible plants and fruits and medicinal leaves; drinkable wild vines and plants as well as various water sources that are safe to drink without boiling. The water comes from underground (known as “mata air” to the locals) and is clean and safe.
Pandan Waterfalls is more than 100 feet in height, cascading down a vertical rock wall. Once we’ve enjoyed ourselves, we will return to base camp at Lubok Merekek to rest and enjoy our dinner. We will then proceed to collect firewood and get a fire going. After 9:00 pm, we will embark on a nocturnal jungle walk along the 4 wheel drive track provided the weather is permissive. Do keep an eye out for nocturnal animals such as foxes, porcupines, snakes, wild cats, mouse deer and more.
Day 2 – Endau Rompin (Selai) National Park
Let the gibbons rise you from your slumber and prepare for a full day ahead! After breakfast, we will proceed to enjoy a thrilling whitewater rafting adventure with rubber tubes for an hour or two. Lunch is then served. After that, your jungle survival lessons begin. You will learn how to collect firewood, start fires using only natural resources around you and how to maintain it for cooking and warmth; how to tie fishing hooks and prepare a fishing line as well as the right fishing spots to cast the line. You will also be taught the gruesome task of slaughtering a live chicken and cleaning traditionally.
You are also expected to prepare dinner—in a true jungle survival way. You will also have to cook rice and other dishes using bamboo and wild leaves. Also, learn to barbeque tapioca and prepare a BBQ fish and chicken dinner. Once dinner is out of the way, we will forgo our tents and sleep out in the open. Participants will be allocated times to maintain the fire which is essential in keeping forest animals away.
Day 3 – Endau Rompin (Selai) National Park / Bekok Office
We will break camp once breakfast is done. However, that will not be the end. You will learn a slew of jungle survival skills such as animal trappings, compass orienteering and how to tie basic knots. Then, we will enjoy lunch before departing on the 4WD to Bekok to conclude the tour.
