Scientific visits are regularly conducted for plant documentation and research.

‘Gotong-royong’ is the routine activity conducted to ensure sustainable forest trails. The trails were maintained by clearing the leaf litter and any fallen tree trunks or branches that blocked them and reinstalled damaged hiking rope on the slopes. All plant labels were also checked, and the damaged or dirty labels were rectified and cleaned respectively. Regular visits were also made to check the trail. A team from Daya Bersih Sdn. Bhd. also assisted us in clearing the forest entrance and the walkway of bushes, resam and dyeing acacia trees.
