This natural wonder is part of the larger Ulu Temburong National Park and is known for its lush green trails and rich biodiversity. Visitors are greeted by vibrant flora and the occasional sight of unique wildlife, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts.

It is RECOMMENDED to PROVIDE A PUBLIC TOILETS (with a fee so that cleanliness is maintained) near Bukit Patoi recreational park so that it is convenient for users, especially for Bruneians who use the Temburong Bridge just for sight seeing. The nearby toilet is only at De' Patoi restaurant but it will close if the restaurant is not in operation.
