KL Eco Park Canopy Walk

After spending close to 2 hours at the caves, we ordered another Grab car and headed to the KL Eco Park. Grab is basically the Asian version of Uber. Car rides that are 15-20 minutes long are costing us $5 CAD or less, saving us money and time wasted working through the transit system.
The thing about using these ride share services is that you sometimes need to understand where you want to go. With parks, it’s hard to figure out where you should choose as a drop off point in the Grab app on the phone. In this case, I chose the wrong one and we were dropped off on the opposite side of the entrance. Luckily we only had to walk another 10 minutes to find our way. Our main purpose to coming to this park to was to walk the canopy walk.
Although KL Forest Eco Park is one of the oldest permanent forest reserves in Malaysia it now boasts one of Kuala Lumpur’s latest attractions, an impressive 200m canopy walk, providing visitors with a wonderful aerial view of the treetops and the city beyond.
Previously known as Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve, this park is the only remaining stretch of tropical rainforest within the city limits of KL.
It was gazetted as a permanent forest reserve in 1906 and at that time it had an area of 17.5 hectares. Urban development, including construction of the KL Tower in the 1990’s, has nibbled away at the reserve over the years and now only 9 hectares remains.
