Packing Checklist

• Medication, mosquito repellent, stop-itch, mosquito coil, anti-histamine, any anti-allergy ointment you may need, muscle relaxant
• Toilet roll, bath towel, toiletries, non-slip slippers/sandals, torchlight
• extra clothing, jumper for cold nights, quick-dry clothing, raincoat/jacket, swimsuit
• cooking utensils, camping cooker, matches, mineral water (if you don't like drinking from the river), food, fruits….anything you fancy. If the furthest you'd venture is Kuala Juram, you're okay because the trip from Sungei Relau ranger station to Kuala Juram, where the hostel is, is by 4WD.
• Camping equipment, if you're camping out - flysheet, tent. Make sure they're strong enough. Torrential rains may weigh tents down if you're not careful. It may be a good idea to bring along some nylon string and tarpaulin for added patio to the tent. Also bring along some extra nylon string for hanging clothes. A knapsack rainprotector would be handy.
