Starting from Mount Tampin Forest Reserve, you must trek to the cave. However, tough as the trail may be, rest assured that you would be rewarded along the way by the startlingly beautiful foliage, the captivating greenery of the rich rainforest that holds the cave in its embrace. This cave, formed beneath the masses of large rocks is one kilometer in length. A clear shallow stream lazily makes it
s way around the stones and boulders that make up the cave floor. The challenge of exploring this amazing granite cave will surely charm and enrich your experiences. The narrow and winding passage into the cave can prove to be quite perilous, especially in the dark. One kilometer in length, the cave system has a stream that snakes across the stones and boulders of the floor while the chamber itself is fascinating to explore. It's a very interesting Granite Cave formation; the river is actually making this formation happen from millions of years of water flow. Big rocks block each other along the “trails” with dim sunlight breaking through in some places, forming a “ray of light” to pierce the darkness.
