Tapak Camping Tasoh
01 Quick Facts
02 🌲 The Vibe
Tapak Camping Tasoh is a managed lakeside campsite at the Timah Tasoh fish sanctuary, Kampung Bukit Manek, Kangar, Perlis — flat grassy ground by the reservoir with the famous lone "Timah Tasoh Tree" (a Wanaka-style photo spot) at the far end. Camping is RM30 per tapak per night for up to 6 pax, with kayak, fishing, a BBQ pit and boat ronda rides available. It is accessible by normal car, but the open Perlis sun offers almost no shade — arrive late afternoon, and expect minimal facilities (limited toilets, no electricity).
