FRIM Canopy Walk - Warning!

This article is actually not as alarming as the heading states : ) Just to warn people of Malaysia who are going to FRIM's canopy walk for a hike. For the unknowing, FRIM stands for Forest Research Institute Malaysia.

  It's located at Kepong and is a great place to bring your family and friends to experience nature. You can basically reach there by 9am and be done by lunch as it's a 45 minutes hike from the base to the Canopy Walk. 

The "walk" is essentially a series of planks suspended in the air by ropes. It's a little scary but safe as they are nets on each side of the "walk". 

My warning is to let you know to buy the tickets at the base and not spend 45 minutes hiking to the top to discover that you can't get on the walk way as tickets are not sold there! And believe me, they won't let you in without the tickets no matter how good your pleading skills are. 

There were a lot of disappointed revelers today. Tickets can't be booked online or through phone either. So they you go, for people around the Klang valley, here's my suggestion of a place to go for a quick get-away!
