From Kuala Lumpur, you can take a bus or hire a car to reach Taman Negara. The journey takes about 3-4 hours by road. The valley is located just outside the main area of Taman Negara, along a quiet road connecting Kuala Tahan to Kampung Pagi1.
You can explore the road by car and stop at different viewpoints overlooking the valley. Always check barren trees for birds.
