As part of my Malaysia Truly Asia campaign (learning explore my own country and city), I rounded up a couple of friends to go for an ATV ride in the forest near Kampung Kemensah. I've tried riding an ATV once in Cambodia near Siem Reap and it was one of the most memorable experiences I can remember. So undoubtedly I was excited to go on this ATV trip - through the jungle and to the waterfall, nonetheless.
I took Package B (details provided in the website below) , which included a 1-1.5 hours ATV ride through the jungle to reach a small waterfall before taking the same route home. It was a good route, started with a 20 minute practice at their very small practice route which included downhill and uphill practice session...then down a very steep slope out of the office/premises and into the jungle. The route was quite interesting - combined uphill climbs, tracks about 5 feet wide and 1 rickety bridge. The waterfall was clean but small, but the highlight was certainly the ride, rather than the destination.
The organisation of the tour was good - they had a mobile number printed on the website. A 50% deposit was required for the booking. They started with a briefing on using the ATV and provided mineral water during the stop at the waterfall..
The machines were functional and reasonably new, in working condition. Sorry I can't provide more pictures for the tour, as they all have my friends faces in it, but we are signing up for Package C soon, and I will be sure to upload more pictures then.
All in all I recommend this ATV trail for those who enjoy ATVs, who likes the jungle. For tourists who are familiar with using an ATV I would suggest a long trail, such as Package C or D described in the website below.

Directions to the ATV Adventure Park
From MRRII, exist Zoo Neagara. Drive all the way in, approximately 4.8km. DO NOT take any right or left turns. You will pass thru Kampung Kemensah and many small houses along the way. Be careful as some part of the road is narrow. Upon reaching a T-junction (fishing pond on left) , drive straight, up the hill for another 1.2km before reaching the park.
