📍 Our weekend getaway to Gopeng was all about adventure, and white water rafting was the highlight. After a scenic self-drive from Kuala Lumpur, we arrived in this small town nestled in nature. The Kampar River awaited us, and after a safety briefing, we were off, navigating the rapids with adrenaline pumping as the cool water splashed all around. The lush greenery and towering trees lining the river made the experience unforgettable, with nature at its finest.
🏨 After a thrilling day on the river, we checked into Sebayu Retreat Gopeng for our first night. The tranquil setting was perfect for unwinding, surrounded by nothing but the sounds of the rainforest. The next day, we explored more of Gopeng before heading to Adeline Villa, a hidden gem tucked deep into the jungle, for our second night. The cozy wooden chalets were a true escape into nature.
📷 The natural rainforest surrounding Gopeng was a photographer’s dream. Every turn offered stunning views, whether it was the lush greenery along the riverbanks during rafting or the misty, towering trees near our accommodations. The best spot? Catching the early morning sunlight filtering through the forest at Adeline Villa.
🍜 One of the highlights at Adeline Villa was the food. The homestyle meals, prepared with local ingredients, were a feast for the senses. Don’t miss their signature dishes—tender chicken rendang, fragrant curry, and stir-fried greens, all packed with authentic flavors.
💡 Remember to pack insect repellent! The beauty of the rainforest comes with plenty of bugs, especially in the evening.
