Jalan Taman Zooview, Kuala Lumpur
Behind the Zoo Negara along Jalan Ulu Klang is a fairly large area of forest. This area is part of the Klang Gates Dam catchment area. This area has several jungle trails which are used by MTB, hikers and ATVs.

If you were to cycle along Jalan Taman Zooview pass the back of the zoo, the road leads to an area where mountain bikers traverse into the forest and catchment area.
Jalan Taman Zooview will eventually lead you to Taman Ukay Perdana where unfortunately rapid development is on-going. Hence in a couple of more years this little forest delight will be lost forever?
A mountain biking enthusiast said that in the 80s , one could cycle along Taman Zooview and see early morning mist. Alas not anymore. The river that runs along the road could once be used by residents in times of drought or water rationing.
How long will this beautiful and fresh green area last?........ It is up to you the people and residents to decide......
