After finishing off at Mr. Loo's sawmill, we went to the waterfall highly recommended by Mr. Loo which was located in Bentong. He only gave us the nickname and not the actual name. Luckily, wasabi managed to google the name and it was Chamang Waterfalls. Surprisingly, it wasn't in my GPS...in fact when we got there, I was unable get a GPS signal...so scary...I forgot to check if my phone had signal or not.
We headed towards Bentong town looking for the famous tau foo fah but we were unable to locate it. Then, I remembered reading some blogs regarding old school ice cream that is runned by a family for a few generations. We reached Restaurant Kow Po and walked in.
They were packed with families and couples. We ordered home made ice cream that came in flavours like coconut, peanut, sweet corn, etc...they were yummy, creamy and not too sweet. They were a steal at only RM2.50 a scoop. Many tables were ordering the Ice Kacang but we were all in the mood for ice cream. However, I felt that the ice cream wasn't that cold which was rather weird and I actually licked up all the melted ice cream as it wasn't too sweet.
This is mine - banana and coconut. I love the banana ice cream...so fragrant...RM5
After ice cream, we followed Shaolin Tiger's instructions to Chamang Waterfalls. Just follow the Raub signboard in Bentong Town and along the way look out for the "Air Terjun Chamang" signboard...once we turn left at the direction pointing to Chamang Waterfalls, we went through a very windy, curvy, sharp bendy road to get to the waterfalls....abt 8km from the main road...some bends were so sharp that wasabi had to horn to alert any cars travelling in the opposite direction. Once we reached there, luckily many families were leaving already and we were amazed by the pristine clean conditions that greeted us. We parked at the parking lot and we didn't have to walk too far to get to the waterfalls.
Clear and clean looking running river water...
They even built this platform whereby people can sit or stand and pose for photos with the waterfall in the background...
Group pic with waterfall in the background and after that we went back to Desa Park City and back home. It was a truly enjoyable trip! Thanks Roger, Sun Shan, Samantha and Fung for coming!
We will plan for a Chamang Waterfall outing soon!
