Taman Negara, literally translated to ‘National Park’ has 3 main entry points. Kuala Koh is the gateway to the northern section of Taman Negara. Located about 90 kilometres from the town of Gua Musang, it is about 290 kilometres drive from Kuala Lumpur and 185 kilometres from the state capital Kota Bharu. This pristine hill and lowland forest cover an area of 835 square kilometres, offering birdwatchers glimpses of over 300 bird species.

There are a series of good trails within this site such as the Ficus and Rafflesia Trails that have provided some exciting records such as the Banded Kingfisher, Great Argus, Large Wren-babbler, Crested Fireback, Garnet Pitta, Scarlet-rumped Trogon and many more.

Public transport is available here via express and normal coaches or you can opt for the speedier and recommended mode of transport i.e., rental car. The site also offers visitors interesting facilities such as an observation hide and a canopy walkway.

Being a quiet and lesser visited site, birding in the area will surely be interesting, new and rare records can also be expected.
