"Also known as Lata Bukit Hijau Recreational Forest, it is famed for its amazing seven-level cascading waterfalls that create seven pools of cool, crystal clear water."
Located about 112km south-east of Alor Setar, deep in the forest of Gunung Inas in the Baling district is Peranginan Bukit Hijau, a great retreat for the locals. Also known as Lata Bukit Hijau Recreational Forest, it is famed for its amazing seven-level cascading waterfalls that create seven pools of cool, crystal clear water.
Although picnickers come here during weekends and public holidays, its large camping ground with basic toilet facilities along the Sungai Mempelam (Mempelam River) is more than adequate for all. Activities available there include nature walks along the bridle path that leads to the forest reserve where one can see nature at its best.

"Em...i think this is a fabulous place for tourists and also the local people. I am saying like this is not because of Bukit Hijau is my hometown trademark but for those who visited before will agree with my statement!
it located quick far away from the town so definately free from any pollutions and also human destroys. It keeps the original patterns of the environment and i can definately called here as a "heaven"!
