Kelangit Camp Ground
01 Quick Facts
02 🌲 The Vibe
Quiet jungle-by-the-river: giant trees lean over a wide, clear river that reviewers compare to Jurassic Park — 'mini Amazon' is the local nickname.
Semi-wild and unhurried — campers keep writing 'rasa tak mboh balik' (I don't want to go home) and 'best healing place'.
Family-first healing spot: shallow clear water for kids, tubing, picnics, and a net web to laze in under the canopy.
The camp's own cafe can be open past midnight — chill enough that the barista jokes about never sleeping.
03 🚗 Getting There
Getting there — 60.8 km / ~1 hr from Kuala Terengganu via Federal Route 3 (AH18); 29 km / ~29 min from Permaisuri, Setiu. Search 'Kelangit Camp Ground' on Google Maps or 'KELANGIT CAMPGROUND' on Waze (now updated); last stretch is kampung road
Owner himself calls it 'WORK IN PROGRESS (FOREVER)' — rough edges expected; Remote: ~1 hr from Kuala Terengganu; last stretch is a narrow kampung track
04 🛏️ Staying at Kelangit Camp Ground
Sleep under giant old trees leaning over a wide, clear Terengganu river that campers call 'mini Amazon' — a cheap, semi-wild riverside camp with just enough comforts (surau, showers, cafe, plug points) to feel looked after while still hearing jungle sounds at night.
- A river you can live in - The river is wide, clear and shallow in parts — reviewers say it's perfect for kids and tubing, with deeper spots for a proper swim, and the tree canopy keeps the water shaded all day.
- Semi-wild, not rough - 80 tent pitches under old riverside trees with toilets, showers, surau, sinks, plug points at every pitch and a small cafe — charming 'work in progress (forever)' energy, not a resort.
- Book by phone, pay little - Tents from RM20/night (1-pax) up to RM80 (6-pax); day trips RM15/pax. Reserve directly on WhatsApp 010-791 7261 / 012-687 1500, or DM the Kelangit FB/TikTok.
Book direct — call or WhatsApp 010-791 7261 (also 012-687 1500) or DM the Kelangit Facebook page / TikTok @boy_kelangit. Bring your own tent or rent on-site; day-trippers pay RM15/pax. Pack insect repellent, river shoes and a torch — clear, shallow water is great for kids, but it's still semi-wild. Extras: zipline RM2 (free for kids per state news), water tubing RM5, ATV RM30/30min. Follow @boy_kelangit and the FB page for promos and school-holiday packages.

06 💬 What Campers Are Saying
"A very impressive river side camping, the very old big tree lean out to the river, feel like jurassic park or local call it "mini amazon" ! Tqvm to Mr. "Boi" & Mr. Suhaimi for their great hospitality, much appreciate to bring me to puasa bazaar & we buka puasa together.

08 🏕️ The Camp Tip
- Families camp here all weekend — a Naturehike grill keeps the kids comfortable, and a Naturehike mosquito coil rack handles the everyday gear.
- The water is the main draw here — a Naturehike wading shoes handles the wet gear, and a Blackdog picnic mat covers the basics for a river camp-out.
- The forest surrounds the site — a Blackdog wagon is essential for the trails, and a Shinetrip sleeping bag keeps the bugs at bay at dusk.
