Robinson Falls, Cameron Highlands, Pahang
Discover Robinson Falls, one of the best waterfalls in Pahang, located near Tanah Rata town in Cameron Highlands. Access this stunning natural attraction via a jungle trail that leads past Century Pines Resort. Explore comprehensive information on visiting Robinson Falls, including details on the trail, scenic views, and tips for making the most of your visit.
Overview
The Robinson Falls is a waterfall off Tanah Rata town accessible via jungle trail. At the T-junction next to the bus station, turn right to a road that leads past Century Pines Resort and a large field. Just before the road ends, take another right turn which ends at a small row of houses; left is where a small bridge starts over a drain that leads to Robinson Falls.
The jungle walk winds for about 10 minutes before the waterfall greets you – a magnificent cascade with a strong stench caused by farming activities upstream. After a quick photo (the river is inaccesible due to the steep terrain), visitors can head back or proceed further on the jungle walk to the peak of Gunung Berembun.
More Information
Location: Walk Path 9/9A Tanah Rata. The Robinson Falls are located in Tanah Ratah, the center of the Cameron Highlands. Only walk a number of jungle trails and one of them, no 9, leads in a short walk to this attractive waterfall.
Most waterfalls are approached from below, but for this one you start upstream in the village. The first cataract is nice, but the view is spoiled a bit by the constructions of the water treatment plant. After the fall the path keeps going down steeply. There might be more falls or cascades, but they will not be easy to reach, because the ravine is very steep. Warning: the water is quite polluted, better not swim here!

Hiking Trail 9 of Robinson Falls at Cameron Highlands-Malaysia (September 2017)
Hiking Trail 9 of the Robinson Falls at Cameron Highlands. This is the beginning of the trail 9. It’s past 6pm and this trail is notorious for its robberies where the attacker would flashed out a machete with some dogs attacking the victims. In fact, many locals and hotel staffs advised me not to take this trail. Fearing for my safety i only ventured a mere 200 meters. The terrain is very slippery and uneven, any mishaps will be fatal.
