The Gabai River (Malay: Sungai Gabai; Jawi: سوڠاي ڬباي), a minor river in the Langat River basin, flows from the 1,462-metre-high (4,797 ft) Mount Besar Hantu in the state of Negeri Sembilan[1] into the dipterocarp forest reserve of the Hulu Langat district in the adjacent state of Selangor.[2]

Gabai Falls

In Hulu Langat, the river descends in a set of waterfalls known as the Gabai Falls (Malay: Air Terjun Sungai Gabai),[1] a popular attraction for the locals, but relatively unknown with tourists. A cemented path leads from the parking to the lower falls. Along the path several shelters have been built. The upper falls can be reached by trails.[3]
