In the heart of Kampung Kiding, Kuching, Sarawak, lies a breathtaking waterfall that has become a sanctuary for nature lovers. I embarked on a few unforgettable journeys to this enchanting destination, and my last visit was during the challenging times of the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020 when travel was limited to within Sarawak.
As we set out on the muddy trail leading to the waterfall, surrounded by the lush greenery of the Bidayuh kampung, the air was filled with the sweet aroma of durians. It was the durian season, and the trees were adorned with the prized fruits, some still clinging to the branches while others had fallen to the ground. The trail, marked by bamboo crossings of various sizes, hinted at the adventure that awaited us.
The cloudy sky overhead told tales of the rain that had poured the day before, transforming the path into a muddy challenge. Despite the slippery conditions, our excitement propelled us forward. Having visited Kampung Kiding before, I eagerly shared my experiences with my brother, who was setting foot in this captivating place for the first time.
The hike, though demanding, became a testament to the beauty of nature and the resilience of the human spirit. Our journey unfolded against the backdrop of vibrant greenery, the occasional squelch of mud beneath our boots, and the distant sounds of wildlife echoing through the dense foliage.
After a challenging trek of over two hours, the distant roar of the waterfall began to grow louder, captivating our senses. Finally, we emerged from the forest to behold the awe-inspiring sight of the majestic falls. The water cascaded down with incredible force, creating a mesmerizing display of nature's power.
With no other souls around, my brother and I stood in silent admiration. The water's powerful impact on the ground created a strong breeze, enveloping us in a refreshing mist. The atmosphere was magical, and we couldn't resist getting closer to the base of the waterfall. As we approached, the force of the water created an invigorating breeze, leaving us in awe of the sheer power of nature.
