Gunung Pulai Recreational Forest, located in Johor, Malaysia, offers outdoor enthusiasts a chance to explore its verdant landscapes and challenging trails. The forest is centered around Gunung Pulai, a mountain standing at 654 meters that serves as a prominent feature in the area. Its dense jungle provides a habitat for a variety of wildlife, including monkeys and exotic birds, making it a haven for eco-tourists and nature lovers. Historically, the forest has been a critical source for local water supply, and conservation efforts ensure the protection of its rich biodiversity.
