Kanching Falls

Kanching Falls is a seven-tiered cascade waterfall located within Kanching Eco Forest Park (Taman Eko Rimba Kanching) in Rawang, Gombak District, Selangor. Situated about 21 km north of Kuala Lumpur along Jalan Rawang, it is managed by the Selangor State Forestry Department. The falls are set in lowland dipterocarp forest and are notable for accessible lower pools and forested hiking trails to the upper tiers.

Visitors can expect a multi-tiered waterfall system with seven levels set in a protected lowland rainforest. The lower tiers (Levels 1-3) feature wide pools suitable for wading and swimming, paved walkways, gazebos and picnic areas. Upper tiers (Levels 4-7) are reached via steep concrete steps and forest trails with increasingly natural surroundings. The area includes changing facilities, food stalls and forested viewpoints, and is typically busy on weekends.

Kanching Falls is part of the Kanching Forest Reserve managed by the Selangor State Forestry Department as Kanching Eco Forest Park (Taman Eko Rimba Kanching), established as a forest reserve for conservation, forestry education and public recreation.

The falls serve as a long-established recreational and family picnic destination for residents of the Klang Valley and are commonly used for local leisure, nature appreciation and outdoor gatherings.
