The 359-hectare Ayer Keroh Recreational Forest was opened on April 17, 1984 and offers visitors peace and tranquility within its cool green surroundings. Recreational facilities include the Prehistoric Garden, the Storyland, children's playgrounds, the Orang Asli (Aborigines) Park, Deer Park, suspension bridge, observation towers, picnic spots and refreshment kiosks.
Joggers will love this place with its three jogging tracks and a par course; and for trekkers, there are many well-marked trails throughout the forest.
Many of the trees are labelled to facilitate identification; birds and insects can be spotted from the many observation towers and tree houses scattered throughout the forest.
There is also a 10-hectare camping ground with basic facilities like water and electricity, barbecue pits, special areas for campfires and scout jamborees, and a par course.
Campers are charged RM10 per day for a group of 10; for groups of less than 10, the fee is only RM5 per day.
If you're looking for more comfortable accommodation, there are cabins equipped with kitchenette at RM30 per night. There are also huts at only RM5 per night, but you have to bring your own gear.
Opening hours:
9 am to 6 pm daily
