04 🛏️ Staying at Drimbaku campsite
A small riverside campground in Kampung Raga where families pitch tents beside a clear, shallow stream at the foot of Gunung Jerai — think splash-and-chill with the kids rather than wilderness camping.
- Kids' river playground - The stream runs clear and shallow — reviewers regularly let children bathe in it. Not a deep-water spot, so adults should set expectations low for swimming.
- Basic but complete facilities - Toilets, bathrooms and a surau/prayer room are on site; Google lists a public toilet and reviews confirm they are clean.
- Kampung calm - Quiet and peaceful village setting with bright lighting at night — reviewers consistently praise the calm, clean atmosphere for a simple overnight escape.
Bring: your own tent plus an extra tarp/groundsheet — one reviewer's tent roof leaked in rain and gear got soaked.
Water: shallow and clean — great for kids, not an adult swimming hole.
Navigate: use the Waze / Google Maps pin on the official Linktree (linktr.ee/d_rimba_ku).
