Deru Alam Campsite
01 Quick Facts
02 🌲 The Vibe
Homely and quiet — guests say it feels 'macam balik kampung sendiri' (like returning to your own village).
A weekend healing spot: 'lokasi strategik untuk healing di hujung minggu'.
More resort-park than wild jungle — well-ordered, tidy and brightly lit at night.
Durian-season energy: families gather for the harvest, the river and the laid-back owner.
03 🚗 Getting There
Getting there — Interior Jelebu area near Kampung Esok, off Jalan Sungai Limau; winding road, remote feel
No published pricing — must call; Always full, booking required
04 🛏️ Staying at Deru Alam Campsite
Deru Alam is a tidy, well-kept camping farm tucked in the Jelebu hills — organised tent sites, a surau with 360° views, a gentle river for tubing and a homely kampung feel that guests keep coming back to.
- Book ahead — it's always full - Regulars say the camp is 'sentiasa penuh'; reservations with the owner first, walk-ins are risky on weekends.
- Go during durian season - The overnight durian-harvest stay is the camp's highlight — free rambutan, manggis & duku, durian sold by price, and cool 360° surau views.
- River day for the kids - A gentle family-friendly river with big float rentals for tubing, plus a kids' pool and sand play by the water — fine under parental supervision.
05 🛠 Facilities
🕌 Surau with 360° views — The standout feature — spacious, cool, and perched with 360° views over the campsite. One reviewer calls it 'surau paling best'.
🚻 Spotless washrooms — Separate male and female toilets, plus sinks and plug points around the site. 'Facilities tiptop bersih' is a recurring line in reviews.
🏪 Mini market & rentals — A small shop sells basic groceries, and you can rent tents and BBQ pits on site — you can genuinely arrive empty-handed.
🌊 River & tubing — The river is gentle enough for kids and adults, with big float (pelampung) rentals for tubing; there's also a kids' pool and sand play by the river.
🐟 Fish pond & fruit season — A fishing pond (weighing fee applies) and, in season, free durian, rambutan, manggis and duku from the surrounding orchard — durian sold by price.
06 💬 What Campers Are Saying
"Alhamdulillah..Sempat merasai suasana 2H1M..walaupun letih setup & unpack😂. Tapi memang berbaloi dpt bermalam musim2 durian luruh. Surau paling best, Luas & sejuk dgn pemandangan 360° Kawasan campsite. Toilet bersih berasingan utk lelaki & perempuan…"
"1. CO & staffs friendly sungguh. 2. Banyak pilihan campsite. 3. Fasiliti bersih, sinki & plug point. 4. Musim buahan, mangis, duku, rambutan free, durian ikut harga. 5. Boleh mancing. 6. Kami bertiga enjoy."
"Premium price tapi primium kualiti, da mcm 5 star hotel facilities. Beberapa perkara yg kurang berkenan ialah : 1. Sungai biasa² je boleh la layan². Utk kanak² ok. 2. Tak de feel nature lansung, more like dalam park. 3. Terang gila malam², nk tido payah."
4.3★ from 16 reviews: a strong run of 5★ stays praising clean facilities, the friendly owner and durian-season nights, balanced by a few 1–4★ reviews about steep stairs, harsh night lighting, the remote road and one poor customer-service experience.

08 🏕️ The Camp Tip
- Families camp here all weekend — a Blackdog wagon keeps the kids comfortable, and a Naturehike dry bag handles the everyday gear.
- The water is the main draw here — a Naturehike mosquito repellent handles the wet gear, and a Ise Mount tableware covers the basics for a river camp-out.
- Swim sessions are a big part of the day — a Naturehike cooler box for the water, and a Blackdog mattress dries you off fast after.
