(1) Shifeng Lake 石峰湖 (Gopeng) - first activity; 7:30am to 10am;

Drive about 30 minutes to the second activity:

(2) Shifeng Forest 石峰林 (Kampar) - 10:30am to 12 noon;

Have simple lunch. Then drive about 10 minutes to a carpark. Take 4WD to start of caving;

(3) Gua Anak Tempurung 水洞 (Kampar) - 1pm to 3:30pm.

Not much hiking (just walk up the steps of Shifeng Forest, a private property); young or old also can do these three activities. 

Because of timing and distance constraint, we have 'chap fun' for lunch. One team member commented that we usually have feast and 'big makan' after completing the activities; since, we still have not completed our activity, eat 'chap fun' or 'kai fun' first 😃
