Lata Iskandar

Lata Iskandar, Tapah (24 April, 2004)


Lata Iskandar (GPS: 4.32544, 101.32432) is a beautiful waterfall in central Perak. It is located between Tapah and Cameron Highlands. It is located within the Lata Iskandar Recreational Forest (Hutan Lipur Lata Iskandar). The waterfall cascades down the barren mountain slope flanked on both sides by vegetation, and empties itself in a pool before cascading down a stream. A fallen log rests unceremoniously on the pool, somewhat marring the otherwise perfect scenery.

I paid a visit to Lata Iskandar on one of my trips to Cameron Highlands with some members of AsiaExplorers. The journey from Cameron Highlands to Lata Iskandar was pretty long, and one of the members was car sick throughout the journey - pity her. If you are not visiting Lata Iskandar, I would recommend that you descend from Cameron Highlands using the Brinchang - Simpang Pulai road.

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.
