00:00 In need of a nature getaway?

00:02 The Frim Forest Skywalk is the perfect spot for you.

00:06 Located in Kuala Lumpur at the Kepung Botanical Gardens,

00:09 construction began in December 2018

00:12 before the skywalk opened to the public on Merdeka Day in 2020.

00:16 With a suspended walkway spanning 250 meters,

00:20 visitors can take in the gorgeous view of the forest

00:23 from high above the park grounds.

00:25 Before you climb up the steps,

00:27 a guide will give you a brief history of the skywalk

00:30 as well as some rules to follow,

00:32 such as not leaning on the rails.

00:34 The skywalk itself features 8 bridges and 9 watchtowers

00:39 that range from 18 meters to 50 meters high.

00:42 With the highest tower sitting at 141 meters above sea level,

00:47 this is definitely not for those who have a fear of heights.

00:50 Still, if you're willing to brave the metal stairs to the top,

00:54 you will get the best seat in the house

00:57 from which to take in the breathtaking forest view

01:00 and city skyline.

01:01 Assuming it's a clear day, that is.

01:03 If the Malaysian heat is too much,

01:06 sign up for the night tour,

01:08 which offers a totally different experience.

01:10 Do note that this is on a pre-booking basis

01:13 and is only available on weekends.

01:15 And that was the Frim Forest Skywalk.
