Lata Keding Bukit Kudung is a newly-discovered flora and fauna location in Kampung (village) Gemang Jeli.

The originality of this Equatorial Nature Reserve is still preserved and potentially a recreational destination for nature lovers.

The crystal clear flow of calm water, chirping birds and peaceful birds and green jungle away from the bustle of the city certainly promises a new experience for visitors who come here, but for the locals this well-known outdoor place here. 

But for the people outside of the Jeli District it is still not popular even though the entrance to this place is facing Universiti Malaysia Kelantan (UMK) Jeli Campus.

Its location is about four kilometers from the main road of Gemang and can be connected by a perfect road. Visitors can choose to drive in or walk to get to this area.

Among the facilities available are open halls, campsites, restaurants, mini zoo and toilets. While chalets and dormitories are being actively developed.

According to Lalang’s Project Manager, Norzahar Daud, although not yet fully ready, Lata Keding has been visited by local and foreign visitors even more so when it comes to school holidays.

The Jeli Campus UMK campus also often makes this location a place for community activities.

“Given that this tin is still in the process of construction, we are deeply concerned with ecosystem conservation and always advise visitors to maintain cleanliness so that greenery and fauna can be preserved,” he said.

“We are working to develop Lata Keding to open the eyes of local and foreign residents that behind the jungle, Jeli also has precious natural treasures,” he said.

“The area is able to attract foreign tourists if it is promoted by the state and federal governments, and it will also be able to generate the local economy once it is fully operational,” he added.

The effort to develop Lata Keding will continue with various exciting packages in making this area a preferred tourist destination later.
