𝐓𝐀𝐌𝐔𝐓𝐔: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐅𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬
Brought to you by THCM, Peninsular Trails Discussions & WaterfallsOfMalaysia (WoM)
Hidden deep within the untouched wild jungle of Batang Kali lies Lata Tamutu — one of Selangor’s best-kept secrets. Unmapped by most, unheard by many, this elusive waterfall is said to rival — or even surpass the towering height of Jeram Perlus located in Hulu Langat
But this isn’t just another off the beaten path journey to a waterfall. This is an exclusive journey into the unknown.
Lata Tamutu cascades gracefully down a wide, smooth rock face — nature’s own water slide. The water runs cold and crystal-clear, cutting through the dense jungle and sunlight-speckled canopy. When you stand before it, it doesn’t feel like Selangor anymore.
It feels like another world.
But reaching it? That’s where the magic begins.
🥾 Along the way, expect:
🌿 Bamboo tunnels thick enough to muffle the world — like walking into a secret dimension
💧 Clear jungle streams you’ll cross barefoot — refreshing and revitalising.
🧗♂️ Heart-pounding scrambles that test your grit (and your quads)
🌺 Hidden flora and elusive wildlife you won’t see on regular trails
With so few ever making it to Tamutu, you’ll feel like you’ve discovered something ancient, untouched — and almost mythical.
Limited slots. No crowds. Just you, the trail, and a waterfall no one believes exists… until they see it.
