I initially wasn't sure if I wanted to go here based on some of the negative reviews here on TA but actually glad I did. It costs 36 Ringgit each if you are non Malaysian. A short 5 minute boat trip from the laketown resort area takes you to the island surrounded by the beautiful lake. As mentioned there are around 14 Orangutans of various different ages and apart from one which has been there since an infant who cannot be released, all others come here, get taken care of and then are placed in the wild. The place is relatively small and you walk in an enclosed walkway, the orangutans are free to roam. This is true up to a point since the Orangutans are indeed free to roam within their large open air enclosure areas but certainly not like a zoo where the roaming area is minimal. When we went, we were the only people on the island visiting and so had our guide to ourselves and saw various animals feeding- so felt like a personal tour. The animals are great characters and I hope they do get released back into the wild where the belong and I hope I have contributed a little bit for preserving this endangered species. There is a shop as well if interested in souvenirs.

Really enjoyed the visit - steps and paths to the first 3 or 4 waterfalls - then hiking trails above to see the rest. RM5 for parking and RM2 per person. A lovely place to visit.

Well worth the effort. The views are amazing. You can walk from town via the Lake Garden and war cemetery. Don't go if you can't see the sumit from town ! Take plenty of water / drinks and some energy food. Cafe about 3/4 of the way up. It's at least 5 hours of walking... Probably 6 or 7 . It's cooler at the top
