Direction From Kuala Lumpur To Jerantut

  • From City Centre to East Coast Expressway

    From city center drive heading toward Gombak Toll Plaza and pay RM5.00 toll ticket. Drive carefully as you driving on the windy high way. Pay another RM3.00 at Bentong Toll Plaza. You can’t see any Taman Negara sign boards after few minutes driving along the highway. Don’t worry, just look for the signage to Temerloh. After you passed by the Exit 816 of Exit Lancang, soon you will notice the first Taman Negara signboard on your left hand side. Now it time for you to be more alert for your exit to Taman Negara within a few kilometers away.
