Once in Kuala Tahan, park your car at one of the designated parking areas near the park entrance. From the entrance, take the short boat ride across the Tembeling River (cost: approximately MYR 1-2 per person). After crossing, follow the clearly marked trails towards the 4 Steps Waterfall, which is about a 30-45 minute hike through the lush rainforest.
