Pixosition

FRIM, an abbreviation to Forest Research Institute Malaysia is located in the area of Kepong. It’s a very big place and by the name of the place… it’s a whole big area of trees, streams with some residential area for staffs and their family there and other buildings for management, museum and sort.

Together with other YACG and friends, we were there for a picnic!… I believe we brought too many food… over-prepared but hey, at least we know we got more that sufficient of source to chomp on and get some energy!

The picnic area is near a stream and some waterfall, pretty nice view in some corners but sadly at some other corners. These some other corners, other people who had their picnic there and left their dirt - newspapers, plastic bags, more papers and just rubbish!… What a shame!

The stream isn’t that challenging as the Tapah retreat stream TRU went through in March, early of this year and not something much of a wow factor as far as I have explored some early entrance of the stream. However, I found something that’s worthy of the visit there and that I will keep for another post!…

Then we headed for the canopy walk. I was excited about it!… my first canopy walk…. but…… (yes, there’s a but!… sadly) it’s not a wow factor as well. Canopy walk was so so. To have the 30 mins of super tiring hike to the entrance of the canopy walk, it doesn’t really justify (at least for me). I guess I just had high expectation and full of imagination how the place and the view would be.

Nonetheless… it’s an experience! and the company! which I am sure there are other better canopy walks!
