We are back at the Sungei Sendat waterfalls this month, on the fringes of a forest reserve, with sun-drenched (or rain-drenched, depending on the weather) greenery all around.
The short run is 2km and the long one is ~4km, with two river crossings.
Head over early if you fancy a picnic and a paddle by the cool waters of the cataracts.
As usual, we will have cold drinks and hot dogs (made with Victoria Crest sausages), so bring a little pocket-money.
And don’t forget towels and a change of clothes, after you’ve cooled off in the water after the run.
