THE SEVEN MAGICAL WELLS (TELAGA TUJUH)
Telaga Tujuh or Seven Wells Waterfall is a unique natural formation of seven pools with one pool cascading on top of the other, to a height of over 90 meters. The waterfall is an ideal site for family picnics or a friendly get together. Located on the slopes of verdant Mount Cincang, locals believe the waterfall has deeper significance than mere natural splendor. Legend had it the bewitching waterfall is the favourite haunt for fairies and sprites, in particular seven sprightly fairies. Each has her favourite pool to bathe and frolic.
These celestial beings are believed to possess supernatural healing powers, therefore the waters here are said to have curative properties. Every time they descend to their favourite playground, the air will be lightly blanketed with sweet pleasant perfume. And, if one listens carefully, one might also be able to hear their giggles of delight.
Nature lovers must never miss trekking to the top of the waterfalls as the view along the way is absolutely rewarding. One may even catch a glimpse of some wildlife such as the long tailed macaques and giant cream coloured squirrels.
