Tasik Puteri Waterfall

Tasik Puteri Waterfall is a forest waterfall located within Hutan Lipur Tasik Puteri near Bukit Besi in Dungun District, Terengganu, Malaysia. Set in lowland dipterocarp forest, the cascade flows into Tasik Puteri, a natural lake that gives the site its name. Managed as a recreational forest, it is notable for its accessible jungle setting, clear shallow pools, and picnic facilities, and is a popular day-trip destination for visitors from Dungun town.

Visitors can expect a forested recreational area with a small cascade waterfall flowing into a lake surrounded by secondary forest. The site has natural rock pools for wading and swimming, sandy and rocky banks, shaded picnic areas with gazebos, and short forest trails. Facilities are basic and rustic. The environment is natural and tranquil, suitable for picnicking, photography, and light jungle walks.

The area is part of the former Bukit Besi iron mining region, historically significant for iron ore mining activity in Terengganu during the 20th century. The recreational forest was later developed for public recreation and conservation.

The name Tasik Puteri translates to Princess Lake, associated with local folklore about a princess linked to the lake. The site is valued locally as a community recreational and nature area.
