I am planning to bring my gf there next week. Is there a resort there to stay? Any advice on what to bring (like eggs for the egg boiling pool, etc)?
Answers would be much appreciated. |

ok, sorry for telling you all so late ya, but that is something you all should know about this TRAP...
I staying nearby there and been there regulary, so i knew a things or two about there. The things is, it is natuaral hot water from the ground, but it is only in the place you see got smoke, where you boil egg, and the big middle pool only. The private place that you all talking and like about is they pump into there using the host connecting down there. Since it is not natural, it cant auto generate the water from the ground so they cant keep changing the water. And the staff there told me they only change once per day, every morning every day. ( sometimes didnt also during peak season ) As you know, the small pool is so small, the water in the pool wont be change till the next day and imagine all the people that have been soaking there for whole day before you, and you guys talking about soaking at night, imagine how many person using that before. For me, my idea is, if really want to go, go early in the morning, soak before other people do. then the places is really great to enjoy yourself. |

Just got back from the sungai klah today ...
nice improvements to the private jacuzzi area but a bit disappointed with the price increase.... jacuzzi used to be like RM25 now its RM75 , entrance was RM5 now its RM10... Overall , i'd still have to say its great to know that this is one tourist attraction that keeps improving instead of the normal degration we have with other tourist spots |

On the weekend, for 10 bucks you get this 4 grand activities :
1) soak in a tepid 35 degree water with a variable 2m x 2m personal space. Marvel at things that floats in the pool and try to guess whether it is a new organism. Mistakenly dunked your head in the water and realised now the thing that floats in the water is now stuck in your hair. 2) Go soak your leg in some really hot water. Optimistically wished that the water is hot enough to kill whatever nasties that lurks there. Look around and count how many diabetic feet / corn feet / swelled feet are sharing the same pool. Do the same wishing again. 3) Line up to get your eggs cooked. No, chicken eggs. So yeah, guys don't worry about it. So there's two baskets, two dozen families lining up to use the said basket. And woe betides those who shared baskets. 4) Mountain spring pool. There's a nice slide there, do have a go. You go up the slide, you wosh down, stand around at the bottom trying to pull up your pants and proceed to get kicked by the next incoming funky kid that slide down. if you're that unlucky you get it straight in the balls. hey, at least it's all natural pool. I didn't smell chlorine. Well, I didn't smell urine either. But who doesn't pee in the pool ? p.s : u better know how to swim at the whatever mountain pool. the lifeguard tower is built as an afterthought. p.p.s : oh, there's cops around there. their job ? make sure you don't bring any outside food in. at first i ain't that happy with this, ya know, cops checking for food instead for drugs or guns .. Well, after i saw how the kids there eat their finger food AT the pool, you just gotta say, bless these cops. |

No-lah..not dirty at all.. probably he is refering to the mountain spring pool which is not hot spring..The water from the spring probably not crystal clear, thus looks greyish & u can't see bottom..well u goto hot spring not to experience cold pool isn't it?
The hot pools & streams are virtually clean & certain pools are actually very hot..temp can exceed 50C. The hottest part is the egg boiling spot wth temperature ~100C!! ...I was there during christmas day...I just luv the middle stream wth temp 44C...damn hot..for whole body soak, I choose the 2 small pools beside the stream ~35C This for sure is the hottest & largest Hot spring I ever been in Malaysia..
