Seven Wells Waterfalls, Langkawi – 24 September 2016

After our trip to the SkyCab, we drove to the Seven Wells Waterfalls which was just 5 minutes away.

We had to walk up a steep roaad from the car park or you can use the staircase at the side (behind the shops) to hike up.

It takes about 15 minutes to hike up to the 1st waterfall. You will see the toilet on your left and there is a sign asking you to turn left. Once you take the left turn, continue to follow the stairs and that will lead you to the 1st waterfall. It’s really breath taking. You can take a dip here if you want to. There are toilets and shower room but I wouldn’t say it was clean.





The next challenge is to continue to hike up to the top by climbing up the staircase. This can take approximately another 30-40 minutes from the 1st waterfall to the top. It can be physically challenging under the scorching heat and prior to reaching the top, it is best to take a rest and breather at the benches provided. Once you reach to the top, you will be soaking wet. Again, you get to see the beautiful waterfalls and walk on the bridge to take photos from the top. There are rocks and the rocks may be slippery, so be cautious when walking around.

While hiking up, beware of the monkeys and snakes. Also there will be insects everywhere, i.e. mosquitoes and spiders. Best to bring mozzie sprays or stickers to avoid the bites!

Once you are done climbing down the staircase, you can relax at the nearby shops selling drinks for some fresh cold coconut juice to reward you on your achievement. There are also snacks and ice creams.    

It’s worth to visit this place.
