Nature Escapes Saves You Time ... And Your Holidays!
Most of these wild excursions can be reached within one to four hours from Kuala Lumpur on a short or long weekend. Your holiday time is too precious. Plus there are other great nature destinations that are best seen with more time - like Taman Negara or Endau Rompin National Parks.
To make it easier to decide where to go, use the
Escape Time Zones that divide nature sites into distinct one-, two-, three- and four-hour drive-time segments. This makes it super convenient to decide on a last minute weekend getaway and makes planning a road trip easy.
Nature Escapes Offers Choices ... For Kids Too!
Some nature sites are easy to get to; others are off the beaten path. And some places are good for kids, while others are only for experienced trekkers.
We want you to make the best decision for a safe, fun escape to the wilderness. That way you know what to expect first to avoid problems when in the jungle.
Get a taste of the jungle by viewing our photos and videos first. Or read some jungle stories and insights from researchers and travelers. And if you need extra instruction on hiking, biking, camping or other outdoor skills, just order one of the easy to download eBooks.

The Lure of Kuala Lumpur and Jungle Experience
Kuala Lumpur is home. I've watched the city grow to unbelievable heights ... unfortunately that also means skyscrapers: the Kuala Lumpur Tower, the Petronas Twin Towers.
The best part about the improvements is the new roads. These streets actually take you out of the city. Quick and Easy, Lah! So get yourself a good road map and you'll soon find your own pathway to nature.
Over the past seventeen years, the jungle has been my refuge. As an environmentalist I get to go out with wildlife researchers and explore the rainforest ecosystem.
Now I want to show you some of Malaysia's awesome biodiversity. Much of it is accessible to anyone who takes the effort to find it.
I know it's not easy to leave the comforts and security of shopping malls and get grubby in the rainforest climate. That's the challenge.
What you are missing is the wonderment. Nothing beats what the jungle can offer: - ... a sensation of discovery
- ... the thrill of adventure
- ... or the surprise of self-achievement.
First get the straight answers from Nature Escapes. Then make your own outdoor and adventure travel plans to exit Kuala Lumpur on a journey of personal discovery.
Nature Escapes will join you on this journey. We are just beginning!
We’ll be hitting the trail throughout 2008 to check out more and more nature sites and reach our goal of 50 adventure travel destinations to share with you.
So come back often and see what’s new in the jungle.

I love the new Nature Escapes website because it provides a great resource of ideas and locations for newcomers to Malaysia to get off the beaten track, get out of the shopping malls at the weekend and explore this wonderful country. My wife, two kids and I moved here in March 2008. We love the outdoors and intend to explore as much of the region's natural heritage as possible. Your website will help us achieve that goal before we leave. Best Regards, Tom of Scotland |
