    Amazing hike and park. Spent a couple of hours here in which I admired the small waterfall until I started hiking the surrounds. The hiking was good quality.

    Lovely hiking close to the city in BSB. Well sign posted, but as you get deeper into the park the tracks get very rough and steep.

    トレッキングコースがある。公園部分は狭く見るものもほとんどないのでトレッキングなしの場合は行く必要はないかなと思います。コンビニのような小さな店などもありません。

    It’s a beautiful place for hikes with great nature and a waterfall. You can choose your trail from the different options and even if some of them could be a little bit improved in terms of maintenance. There is a kids playground around there too, monkeys jumping around and a free parking.

    Nice park, we were all alone. Too bad the wooden railings are rotten and cordoned off. Brunei should maintain the facilities better!

    Lovely park for a brisk 20 minute walk, a simple 40 minute trek or even a lengthy, challenging 2-3 hour long trek! This park has a wonderful little waterfall and is also connected to a long trekking route leading into the hills of Bandar, with maps laid out at the forks in the road showing you the options.

    love park... but the toilets definitely need a facelift

    Be careful not to go down the difficult paths or you will be in a world of exhaustion. If you see ropes then it's probably the wrong path

  • 4/5 Steve S. 4 months ago on Google • 254 reviews
    Nice place in the middle of jungle that is dire need of maintenance

  • 4/5 Seth H. 2 months ago on Google • 231 reviews New
    Quite an intense hike, much more so than I expected going into it. Google Maps didn’t have the routes, but Maps.me did, so download that before. It’s constantly up and down, with not too many open viewpoints but a few nice views along the way. A decent bit is covered by tree, so didn’t get burned too bad, but good to bring sunscreen as a few open spots. A very aggressive monkey was on my path downwards near the end, blocking my path, scratching its butt and showing its teeth. Ultimately it almost attacked but I had to sternly yell at him and it backed off.

    This place is badly named because when I think of a ‘rec. park’ I think of a playground and a couple of footy fields. This place is great! It’s especially great to be so close to the city and yet when you leave ‘the rec’ area and the paved roads, and follow the tracks through the trees you feel you’re in the middle of the jungle. Lots of different species of plants and birds to see. And barely any people (even on a Sunday morning) – lovely! The waterfall was hidden behind foliage so you couldn’t see it, the big lake is fenced off so you couldn’t really appreciate that either. Learn your route before you go off-track because there are no maps once you leave the paved area. Stock up on water as there’s nowhere to buy it there and of course wear closed footwear if you are intending to leave the paved areas and along the forest tracks. There’s a big, free car park at the entrance.

    산책🚶‍♀️과 조깅🏃‍♀️하기 좋은 공원이고 폭포도 구경할 수 있고 긴꼬리원숭이🐒도 많아요. 새소리가 다양하게 들리고 공기도 너무 좋아요. 전 캄퐁아에르조다 여기 원시림이 더 좋네요.☺️

    Just 30 mins walk from the main city area to explore the beautiful nature. It was a place where both tourists and locals to come to enjoy the exercise in nature. There are some different paths so that you can choose which path to take. If you are taking the path which goes beyond the lake, it would be a really good exercise. Some of the areas could be improved and maintained in a better manner, but over all it is a great hike. Free parking available and there are coconut juice shops near the entrance, which is great after an exercise!

    It’s a nice place to go for a walk. Locals use it mostly for jogging and exercising. It’s very hot in the afternoon though, so better to vome in the morning or late afternoon. There is a beautiful waterfall here, but the deck doesn’t look safe anymore. Some parts are closed off already. There is a public toilet in the park

  • 5/5 Tony Minseok K. 1 year ago on Google • 94 reviews
    There are 2 courses. One is for recreational, chill and easy path and the other is for hiking. Both paths are amazing. I saw a little Komodo(?) lizard and other bird species i have never seen before. The hiking path was also great with a good amount of intensity

    If you love nature and hiking, this place is for you. You can bring your kids along because there's a playground here. I saw a monkey climbing up a tree, a waterfall, and rivers. You can also exercise here.

  • 1/5 ina s. 3 months ago on Google • 29 reviews New
    It's not well-maintained. The bridge and other pathways definitely need renovation, and the waterfalls are dirty. It should be a nice area if the government takes better care of it.

  • 5/5 scott k. 8 months ago on Google • 25 reviews
    I loved the trail! It was pretty tough considering the weather, but i got some good sweat out of it. I recommend first timers at this trail to follow a guide. ( from all trails or whatever trail app you use ) as the markings are not consistent/obvious 😅

    Tasek Lama Recreational Park is an absolutely wonderful place for anyone looking to relax, unwind, or enjoy some outdoor activities. It’s perfect for a peaceful escape from a busy lifestyle. Whether you want to walk, hike, or simply enjoy nature, this park has something for everyone. For hikers, there are several trails that vary in difficulty, offering a great way to explore the natural beauty of Brunei. The trails lead through lush greenery, and for those looking for a challenge, some of them can be a bit steep—but definitely worth it for the views and sense of accomplishment. One of the highlights is the beautiful waterfall, which you can find while hiking through the park. The sound of the cascading water adds to the peaceful atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for relaxation or a quick nature break. If you're into birdwatching, this park is also a great place to spot various species, thanks to its rich, natural environment. And best of all, the entrance is totally free—a rare gem that offers such a peaceful experience without any cost. I highly recommend Tasek Lama for those who want to disconnect, get some fresh air, and enjoy the tranquility of nature. It's a perfect spot to recharge, whether you're a hiker or simply looking for a serene place to unwind.
