Lembah Kiara Recreational Park

Lembah Kiara Recreational Park
Taman Rekreasi Lembah Kiara

Taman Rekreasi Lembah Kiara is located in Taman Tun Dr Ismail. It is a very popular recreational spot in the middle of the city widely visited by many during weekdays and weekends. Ideal for morning or evening stroll!

The park is a favourite place for joggers especially during weekends. People from all walks of life and ages love to come here and get some fresh air. Some people claimed that the air here is fresher that any other parks in Kuala Lumpur!

The biggest attraction of Lembah Kiara Recreational Park is its well-paved running path. With a cushion-like surface, the red-coloured path absorbs the shock of impact from exercising and running.

The route of the run is broken up into two sections - one with higher inclines for the more athletic and a slightly more level one for those who prefer to take a leisurely stroll around the area. Both paths join and separate at different points, and hence, each one that visitors take offers different sights.

Beautiful Landscape

The wider path winds through different types of trees, and at certain vantage points, you can see almost the whole park. Along the path, a suspension bridge is also popular and is built over a large stream.

The smaller walking path circle through the large pond and here and there, couples and families settle to enjoy a spot of fresh air or look for fish and turtles.

Among the trees, you can find small and shallow streams with fishes. Chilren love this place and would bring little nets or even dip their hands into the water in attempts to catch the fishes while the parents looked on.

The smaller walking path also allows access to a cemented platform, where teenagers often play ball; adults carry out line-dancing, Chinese fan dance sessions and even contests organised by certain corporation.

The landscape of the Lembah Kiara Recreational Park is also well sculpted, with palms, clumps of flowers like cannas and different types of shrubs, all of which are well kept.

The clearing nearest to the car park is the most popular place, where a wooden bridge often sees young children hanging over the side to look into the water.

At the side, specially erected bars and benches are perfect if you want to flex your muscles.

Entrance is free!
