One of the most majestic White Marble & Limestone formations in Malaysia is the Tempurung Mountain. Concealed within this limestone massif in an intricate system of caves of magnificent proportions forming a honeycomb inside the limestone hill. These caves are actually a breath-taking gallery of Stalagmites, Stalactites, Rim Stone Pools, Curtains, Straws, Flowstones, Crystals, Pillars & other amazing rock formations, which are a sample of superb speleological wonders found only in this part of the world. Tempurung Cave (photos) is the main attraction here. The cave meanders under the limestone hill forming a tunnel of wondrous and endless rock formations that run from East to West with a stream running through it nearly 1.9 KM in length. In early 1950 to 1960 this cave was used by the Communist as a hide out as there are drawings and writings (in mandarin) found on the wall at the Rolls Royce Chamber and also you will see some tools left by Communist & Miners (mining for Tin) in early 1970's at the Gergasi Chamber and a beautiful hanging rock garden at Alam Chamber.

Tempurung cave is suitable for beginners (for educational caving) as well as for the adventurous one, as you walk in to this cave you will see almost all cave formations and it is one of the most beautiful caves in Malaysia besides Mulu Caves & Pasir Dagang Cave. For those who are looking for more fun, adventure caving can be arranged by our professional caver.
