HsG Tekam Plantation trip





Tekam Plantation Resort is located at Pahang and it is famous for tourism. There we can get near and feel the nature of the earth. Although human have been there for a long time but it is a reserve forest. Therefore the environment is under protected. I enjoy the whole journey there although it is very tiring.

The first thing we do there is fishing. We start fishing at 9am till 1pm. We got alot of ikan talapia and some keli. The best part is Wen Wei get the biggest fish at that moment and very expensive fish. It worth about RM200. I dunno what it is name but in Chinese we call that 'Soon Hock'. At that moment everyone is very excited and shouting cos this is the most expensive fish we get before. Then later we go back to resort to have our lunch and rest for while.

Then at 3pm we go for rafting. We spend about 1hour 30 minutes but it is totally a waste of time because we raft at the tasik but not river. At first we though we can raft at the river cos it is very fun. But now they stay letting tourists raft at Sungai Tekam because they saw crocodile there. Therefore we got no choice and raft at the tasik. We just raft for 20 minutes then we go back to resort cos we fed up with it. We spend about 1hr 30 min there because we have to make our raft there and carried it to the tasik. Than after rafting we carry the raft back to the same place and untied it.

Then about 5pm we continue to fish at the same place where we get alot of fish. This time we get complain from the people there for fishing in that place because we cant fish at that spot due to Hari Raya. Furthermore, we fish at the illegal pond which it is for aquarium purpose. Then about 6.30pm we leave that spot and go for the Haruan pond where is very silent and no ppl was there. We manage to get nthn there so we go back to the resort at 7.30pm to take our dinner

About 9pm we went back to our chalet to bath and start our poker party and drink some liquor. Then all of us sleep at 11pm because we are very tired and abit drunk.

The next day we wake at 7.30am and have our breakfast. Then later at 9am we went to Gua Sanding for caving. This is the best part of our trip. We get into the forest and can see alot of big trees where age about 100-200 years old, deer and wild boar foot step. Later we get into the cave. The cave is dark and slipery because last night there was raining. The cave is very mysterious because we nvr been to this kind of place before. Then we get to a place where we need to get through a very small hole. Everyone manage to get through safely but we need to really cafeful. Then we reach a place where alot carving statue on the wall by the olden people. The tour leader told us that this cave is age about 150 million years old!!!!!! This is great because as a malaysian because we have not been to this kind of place before.

The when we want to get out from the cave, we need to get down a very deep slope and heigh about 175 feets. All of us get down slowly but we enjoy there because it is very tension and exciting. After we manage to get down, we exit the Gua Sanding and went to another cave to see a Monalise face on the wall of the cave. It is high on the cave entrance so i was thinking how the olden people done this. This is awesome! Later we visit a cave where alot of bats, the amount is about 2000 fruits bat. When we saw that, all of us is very exciting because we never saw that many bats before in a cave where not many human visited the cave before. So this is different from Batu Cave. At halve way, we stop for clearing the leech on our leg because it is very itchy. In my life I really nvr see lech before on my leg so i am very happy and slowly take it of. Then we exit the forest. At the end of the exit, there is a small pond to watch hand and leg. The pond is very nice and the water is clear. That place is like the TVB drama place because it is very beautiful.

The next place we go after the cave is Sungai Tekam where once people saw crocodile there but we cant see any croc is there but we don have to see it because we want to fish there. After 1 hr of fishing at that river, we go back to chalet because we cant get anything there but only mosquito bite.

In the chalet we start packing our stuff and left the resort. On the way back, we were enjoying all the way although we are tired. We chit chat all the way and making jokes.

When we reach KL at 5.30pm, we take the 'Soon Hock' and cock. This fish is the best fish i have eaten because each slice of the fish we can peel it off and very fresh.

In this trip, all of us enjoy it very much and plan other place for caving again. Hope i can go for caving again because it is really fun!!!

This trip we only send Rm 164 = 5 meal + rafting+ caving+1 nite stay+ fishing+ petrol+ water and etc.

this trip is totally worth it!
