Run-site: Run-site: Taman Rimba Templer (Templer Park) – nice and close!
Travel Time: around 30-40 minutes for most of us
Date: Sunday 7th September, 2025
Hares: Clark family
Co-Hares:
Registration: 1:20 onwards
Run Starts at: 2:00 pm
This forest park is popular with the public, with its long series of waterfalls to hike around and play in.
We will use the public car park, and will find our own space for hot dogs, circle etc.
Note that there is now a small charge for access to the car park and/or trails.
The hares are working out the details, but you will need to pay a small amount per person and maybe also a small amount per car, so bring a little cash for this as well as for hotdogs and drinks.
Although the trails are limited in this area, meaning that it’s likely to be an ‘out-and-back’ run, it’s a really nice area, and a safe spot to go on your own or take friends who don’t know much about the jungle. There might even be a waterfall …
PLEASE remember to register BEFORE the run, at our registration desk. Members just mark the registration sheet, and guests must fill in kids’ details (plus a phone number) on the guest sheet, and pay the guest fees of RM10 per kid.
EVERYONE (members and guests) must also sign out AFTER the run, so we know that nobody is lost.
After the run, there will be hotdogs and cold drinks, as usual, so it’s going to be a fun afternoon for the whole family – remember to bring some pocket money and a change of clothes.
Directions
The area around this popular attraction has a few entrances and car parks, but maps show a single location for ‘Taman Rimba Templer’, so that should work fine in Waze or Google Maps.
If you’re coming from KL, past Batu Caves and up the old highway 1 towards Rawang, the entrance is on the other side of the road, so you’ll have to do a U-turn.
If yor’re coming from the North/West on the LATAR, then you’ll be heading towards Batu Caves / KL, so you won’t have to do a U-turn, but you will need to watch for the correct exit.
To find the correct entrance, click on one of these icons:
If you see the Templer Park Shell station on your right, you’ve missed the best U-turn and need to look for another one.
If you see the Templer Park Shell station on your left, then you’re coming from the LATAR / Rawang direction, and need to take the second left after passing Shell.
After taking the turn-off, stop following your navigation app and look for junior hash signs and/or junior hash cars/people.
