Taman Negara National Park was established in Malaysia in 1938/1939 as the King George V National Park. It was renamed to Taman Negara after independence, which literally means national park in Malay. Taman Negara (total area 4,343 km²) has a reputation as the world's oldest tropical rainforest.[1][2]
Taman Negara encompasses three states, Pahang, Kelantan and Terengganu, each with its own legislation. The Taman Negara Enactment (Pahang) No. 2 of 1939 is enforced in the state of Pahang, the Taman Negara Enactment (Kelantan) No. 14 of 1938 in the state of Kelantan and the Taman Negara Enactment (Terengganu) No. 6 of 1939 in the state of Terengganu. The enactments have similar contents.
Taman Negara Pahang is the largest at 2,477 km², followed by Taman Negara Kelantan at 1,043 km² and Taman Negara Terengganu at 853 km².
The park has been developed into a famous ecotourism destination in Malaysia. There are several geological and biological attractions in the park. Gunung Tahan is the highest point of the Malay Peninsula; climbers can use Kuala Tahan or Merapoh as their departure point. Taman Negara is the home of some rare mammals, such as the Indochinese Tiger, Crab-eating macaque, Sumatran Rhinoceros, Great Argus, Red Junglefowl, Malayan Gaur (seladang) and Asian Elephant. Among the birdlife, the rare Malayan Peacock-pheasant is still found here in some numbers. Tahan River has been preserved to protect the Malaysian mahseer (ikan kelah in Malay), a type of game fish.
Others attractions found near Kuala Tahan (Park headquarters for Pahang) include a canopy walkway, Gua Telinga (cave system), Lata Berkoh (rapid). Visitors can enjoy the tropical rain forest, birdwatching or jungle trekking (e.g. Tenor Rentis) and the river views along the Tahan River.
All visitors to the park must get permits from the Department of Wildlife and National Parks. There are many hostels and hotels nearby.

Malaysia's Jungle Train (Johor Bahru to Kota Bharu)
Malaysia's Jungle Railway is 526 km long and runs between Gemas on the Butterworth-Kuala Lumpur-Singapore trunk line, and Tumpat in the northeastern part of Peninsular Malaysia. It passes through the states of Negeri Sembilan, Pahang and Kelantan. A ticket for a lower bunk from JB to near Kota Bharu costs MYR55 / $14 (Note: Get off at Wakaf Bharu for Kota Bharu - not Pasir Mas which is further away. I then paid MYR25 for a taxi to Kota Bharu).
Until a programme of road building in approximately the 1980s, most of the towns and villages along the East Coast line had no other means of accessing the larger world. While the name evokes a journey through thick rainforest, the reality is that the forests of Peninsular Malaysia are disappearing to be replaced with oil palm and rubber plantations.

Lynne......
The Taxi picked us up from the Hostel at 3.30am and headed for Wakaf Baharu Station. We shared the taxi with a boring guy from Belgium (not many of them around) who more or less invited himself along with us. Not a problem he was harmless enough just a bit dull (an accountant by trade). We boarded the train at 4.15am and headed for our 2nd class seat. The choice had been economy or 2nd class....we went posh as the train journey was over 8 hour we thought we should have comfortable seats. Like most transport in Malaysia the A/C is turned up to the Maximum, this was no different, with in 20min we were reaching for warm jumpers as the carriage was like cold storage.
As it was dark outside and ridiculously early we reclined the seats and set about making up for our lost of sleep. It started to get light about 8am and we were passing lush green farms and massive plantations of banana and pineapple trees. Limestone cliffs rose up to the right of us and a brown chocolate coloured river run by the side of us. Vast areas of forest have been cleared leaving dark red soil, like you are in the middle of the Australian outback.
The journey went surprisingly fast even though we seemed to stop at every station for ages. Most of the stations where just a sign post letting you know what town you are in and a raised walk way one one side so you can get out the train. We arrived at Jerantut only 10 min later than advertised on our tickets which was good going. Jerantut is a nothing town that houses the jetty for the boat to Taman Negara national park (the Jungle) or you can also get the bus from here too.
We stayed here for one night (with Pascal our Belgium Guy) and got the bus to the jetty in the morning. We shared the bus with 3 Italians who we had previously met in Kota Bharu and 2 Dutch girls who were to become our new best friends for the next week....oh and of course Pascal.
The boat ride over to national park was fantastic, it was a long sturdy boat that you sat in the bottom of on cushions. We jetted off down a wide river with jungle towering over us on each side. The journey was for two hours to Kuala Tahan the village on the opposite side of the river to the main entrance to the national park.
As we had brought a tent with us we where keen to get our first night under canvas and this seemed the best place to do it. There was a nice camp sight on the edge of the river and best of all it was cheap...only 5rm each a night. We set up tent and then went off to explore.
Taman Negara Jungle is 130 million years old that has never seen any sort of natural disaster, like earthquakes, ice age, etc so there for has been allowed to grow undisturbed in that time. The whole area is 4343 sq km, about the size of Luxembourg and houses elephants, tigers, wild boar and a variety of birds and insects.
We set of in a river taxi across to the main entrance to have little look round at base camp. We found a small trail that lead to a watering hole for swimming, within minutes of us entering the jungle it started raining. Not a great deal that we got wet but enough that it brought the leeches out. Now for anyone who doesn't know what a leech is or what is does well we have some great pictures of Gary's feet with three friendly little suckers helping themselves to his type O.
It's not as bad as it sounds and Gary was very calm about the whole thing. We had looked up on how to get leeches off before we came to the Jungle as we knew they had them here. So Gary calmly flicked the first two leeches to the right and they flew right off. The third however was hanging on tight and was perfectly happy chowing down on Gary's foot. The next option was to burn it off with a cigarette butt or pour salt on it. Now having never smoked the first option was out of the window so as we had walked back to base camp I went in search of some salt. Once the salt hit the leech it unattached itself and rolled right off his foot, leaving a river of blood running from each wound. Out came the first aid kit and my big brave soldier was cleaned up and set on his way to tell everyone he met about his great adventure.
There are a number of trips, jungle walks, 2/3 day hikes, river rapid rides, that you can do while you are here and most involve having proper trekking gear and a ...
