SLEEPING IN A CAVE DEEP IN THE MALAYSIAN JUNGLE - TAMAN NEGARA 2D1N INNER JUNGLE VLOG
Pahang, Malaysia - Taman Negara National Park, home to the world’s oldest tropical rainforest estimated to be 130 million years old. Looking for my next adventure I came across a 2 day 1 night jungle hike deep into the inner jungle of Taman Negara that consists of a 20km trek through dense forest and a night inside a huge ancient cave. Along the way keeping a look out for the critically endangered Malayan Tiger, Black Panthers, and wild elephants, all of which call this jungle environment their home. A group of friends and I took a flight from Singapore to the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur and then began a 4 hour drive to Kuala Tahan which is the entrance to Taman Negara National Park.
Day 1:
- 0:35 Meet our guides in the morning to pack our bags for the journey ahead. Each of us need to carry 3 bottles of water, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, food, cutlery and other supplies, this is in addition to all the personal items we’ve brought with us. As a result our bag was somewhere in the range of 15-20kg. There is a list of everything you should bring at the bottom of this description. The guide gives us a safety briefing before we head out.
- 1:35 We climb into speedboats for a 2 hour journey to the hike starting point, on the boat ride over we eat a packed lunch. A few times during the ride we went through rapids that soaked everyone in the boat.
- 2:20 The boats drop us off at the hike starting point and we begin our 11km trek through up and down terrain, crossing over fallen trees, streams, and patches of heavy mud.
- 3:34 After 5 hours of intense hiking we arrive at a massive cave deep in the middle of Taman Negara. Here we setup our sleeping gear and settle in. The guides collect our food rations and start to cook dinner.
- While waiting for our dinner, the group heads to the nearby stream for a jungle shower. For obvious reasons I did not film this as part of the video. A few people in the group discovered leeches stuck to them during the shower.
- 4:39 Back in the cave some hot tea was served to the group followed by chicken and vegetable curry. The group spent some time sitting on the cave floor and chatting over dinner, everyone super tired from the days hike.
- 5:02 After dinner everyone goes to sleep to the sounds of bats and strange jungle noises.
Day 2:
- 5:10 We wake up in the cave, not having slept very much and begin to pack up for another day of humid hiking through the dense jungle. On Day 2 it will be alittle short distance compared to the first day, covering about 9km over 4 hours.
- 5:40 Throughout the trek we run into creatures like millipedes, termites, ants, and huge Hornbills in the sky. The entire time we continually dodge leeches that are crawling towards us at every turn.
- 6:07 Finally the end of the trek is near and all of us are exhausted as we finish to a beautiful view of the river. Here we stop and eat the instant noodles we have been carrying for 2 days.
- 6:13 On the way back we stop at the Canopy Walk where we are suspended nearly 150 feet above the jungle floor, an anxiety causing but cool adventure to end off our experience in Taman Negara.
- 7:19 After 2 exhausting days we drive back to Kuala Lumpur for a well deserved Durian Feast.

Amazing wish i coukd try this kind of hike soon❤
You can try it for sure
Yes! This is great stuff Greg.
Thanks alot 🙏
Thanks for the video! I have a better idea what to expect when I’ll go in October! I have a question, did you guys trained something specific that would help to climb mt rinjani? I know you need to be relatively fit but any suggestions? Thanks!
You’re welcome ! Thanks for watching. Yes we were training before we went on some hills and hikes with some elevation. If you don’t have any of that near you, then training on stairs work fine too
Love this!
This good
Thanks you should try
Hey there. Just today I called CAAS Singapore regarding drone footage and posting it in CZcams. They said once I uploaded to CZcams, it’s considered as Commercialized and Non Recreational. Meaning I need license to do so. Even when I fly <60M and <250gram drone. In your video now, you posted all those footage. Is that fine?
Fantastis....
the last part is favorite fruit😍
I love durian too !
Beautiful footage! how long did it take to walk the full course in taejongdae?
Thanks a lot. I did it in under 2 hours but I was moving fast and didn’t stop much. I’d say 3 hours if you stop at the lighthouse, observatory, temple, etc
google translate APP helps. realtime photo translation also works on food menu too
Yes those are great options thanks, I usually use Google translate as well.
🤩🤩🤩
Welcome to Dynamic Busan! I hope you have a good memory :)

Langkawi, known as the "jewel of Kedah", is an archipelago of 99 large and small islands located in northwest Malaysia. It is famous for its pristine beaches, dense tropical forests, majestic mountains and diverse culture.
Ha Long Bay is one of Vietnam's most popular tourist destinations, and for good reason. This bay is home to more than 1,600 limestone islands rising from the sea, creating a breathtaking scene. Visitors can tour the bay by boat, kayak or even climb some of the islands.
We look no different than ants
We are just ants on this world haha
Penang is a beautiful island off the northwest coast of Malaysia, famous for its unique blend of Chinese, Indian and Malay cultures. Penang's ancient city of George Town is recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site
Yes!! Have you visited as well ?
Very nice video - can’t wait to travel to Penang ❤
Thanks a lot, I hope you can go soon. You deserve it
Excellent.
Thanks a lot for watching, I appreciate it 🙏
I am from Thailand And I want to thank you you all countries For the beautiful culture that has been spread to us. While Cambodia often secretly claims everything's as its own.
The culture of Thailand and the people are amazing. I’m very grateful to be able to visit and experience the country. Thank you for your comment
Are you gonna attending songkran this year?
Yes! I’ll be there
Perfect, i'll be there. Hope to see you in Thailand ✌🏻
You guys miss the lake and torean valley. The torean path has one of the most breathtaking view. I hope you guys will be back to see it.
Yes you’re right :/ it looks beautiful. I need to go back and do the longer trek next time
Great video. I suggest adding subtitles in different languages so that viewers from around the world can better enjoy it.
Thanks, that’s a great suggestion, I’ll consider that for future videos.
Oh cool! The view is so nice! Thanks for sharing buddy. 🎉❤
Thanks for the comment dude
Great video, thanks for the detailed storytelling and your effort❤
Thank you and you’re welcome. I enjoyed putting it together and appreciate the comment
Hey, You mentioned the Mangrove tour - did you prebook it or book on the spot? If we book an entire boat can we book it at any time of the day or are there any particular slots like 9:30 AM o2 2:00 PM - like you see on Klook?
Hey, great question. I booked the mangrove tour one day ahead at one of the tour shops near Cenang beach. Even if you book your own boat my understanding was that there is still 2 times slots either morning or afternoon.
