Mount Lambak Recreational Forest

It has been developed as a recreational and tourist attraction called Mount Lambak Recreational Forest. Pathways and wooden bridges make it relatively easy to climb to the summit, and a picnic spot at the base of the mountain has car parking, benches, a small children's playground and toilets.[2] There is also chalet accommodation, camping facilities and a swimming pool.[3]

Mammals found on Gunung Lambak include the Long-tailed macaque, Pig-tailed macaque and Dusky leaf monkey.[4]

Broadcasting mast

The television station RTM completed a transmitter on Gunung Lambak in 1969 to provide good reception in Kluang. It closed in 1983, superseded by a transmitter at Mount Ledang in Tangkak District. The mast still stands at the summit of Gunung Lambak.
