There are two viewing platforms at the top of Machincang mountain, and other amenities.
There is a 2.5 km walking trail, the SkyTrail, through the forest from the top station that goes down to the middle station, and then the Seven Wells (Telaga Tujuh) waterfall,although walking unguided through the trail is not advisable as the trail is not well-maintained and there is a risk of getting lost.Pre-arrangement with a naturalist guide is necessary.
