Gua Kelam, Perlis
Photos by Mike Tee (http://www.densityonline.com)
Perlis is a small state located in the northern tip of Peninsula Malaysia. It houses Gua Kelam (Dark Cave), a 370-metre long limestone cave which is a tourist attraction of the state. The surrounding area has been developed into a recreational park complete with toilets & showers, wooden tables & benches, huts and food stalls.
Some enterprising climbers have taken the initiative to establish climbing routes at the crags, and as a result, there are now over 30 bolted routes in 6 climbing areas.
However, due to a lack of climbing activity in the area, most of the rocks are infested with creepy-crawlies, so expect to brush of cobwebs, spiders, ants, insects, hives, etc as you climb along :-)
