Taman Negara — Canopy Walkway & Bukit Teresek

A short loop through what is often called the oldest rainforest on earth — this lowland forest has stood for something like 130 million years, never glaciated, never dry. The walk takes in the canopy walkway and the viewpoint on Bukit Teresek, and comes back a different way.
