Lata Lembu Recreational Forest, Kedah

Lata Lembu Recreational Forest is a protected forest in Sik District, Kedah. It is 16 km from the town of Sik. The forest is quite remote, as there is no access road for vehicular traffic. Entering it involves making a 5-km track through the jungle from Lata Mengkuang.

The Lata Lembu recreational forest is a favourite spot for camping and bird watching. It is located at an elevation of between 400-500 meters above sea level, and is covered with highland dipterocarp forest.

Lata Lembu is also the name of the waterfall in the forest. It is 30 meters in height, and cascades over the rocks to a picnic spot at the bottom. The site got its name from a rock formation at the bottom of the waterfall that resembles a cow.

Getting there

Exit the North-South Expressway at the Gurun Interchange, Exit 173. Take State Route K10. Pass Sik town. Thereafter pass Peranginan Sik Recreational Forest. Lata Mengkuang Recreational Forest is on your left. To reach Lata Lembu, park at Lata Mengkuang and track 5-km through the forest path.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
