A Hidden Gem Just 1 Hour from Singapore! Hiking + Waterfall Fun

#springitinerary Looking for a mountain that the whole family—from kids to elders—can enjoy hiking? I recommend Gunung Pulai in Johor! It’s just a 1-hour drive from the Johor Bahru checkpoint. The trail is smooth and well-maintained, shaded with greenery all around. The slope is moderate, giving you a good workout without being too tough. You can reach the waterfall in about half an hour! Waterfall Fun: The waterfall has three big cascading tiers with spectacular splashing water—so refreshing! There’s a shallow area where locals love to have water fights and soak, creating a super lively atmosphere. Wild Monkeys Appear: Along the trail, you’ll see wild monkeys hanging around, sometimes sitting by the path looking at you curiously (but don’t stare or feed them! Be careful—they might snatch your bags). From a Kid’s Perspective: “I had so much fun here! I could play water fights, and it was super exciting!” #familytravel
