Lake Timah Tasoh

Share |



Located about halfway between the Perlis State Park and Kangar, Lake Timah Tasoh is a 1,300-hectare man-made, state-owned reservoir. The lake are provides various wetland habitats for birds and as a result, is home to more than 140 species of resident and migrant birds. The best time for bird watching is from October to March during the bird migrations season, when many migratory birds make stopovers at Lake Timah Tasoh. Sedges and reeds, a refuge for birds, surround parts of the lake. Among the rarer birds found here are the Eurasian Coot, Grey-headed Lapwing and the Cotton Pygmy Goose. Apart from waterbirds, one might also spot forest birds in the patches of lowland forest and around the lake. Bird watchers can head for the short trail near the main visitor area along Federal Route 7. Access to the lake shoreline is possible via several roads branching from the main road. Lake Timah Tasoh also draws locals who come to enjoy spectacular views of sunrise and sunset.
