This forest area in Sungai Siput is one of the least known ‘hidden gems’ in Perak. Located about 50km away Sungai Siput town, the 60m high waterfall is not mistakenly the hidden one as visitors need to hike about 15-20 minutes to the waterfall from the parking area. But the hike is pretty easy and well-maintained by the Orang Asli community there. There is a village of Orang Asli community here known as Pos Yum. Here are the usual spot for hikers who hiking at Bukit Berekeh.
