Kok Mak Stable is located in the northern most part of Malaysia, approximately 500 km away from Kuala Lumpur.
The scenic view of paddy field and being right at the Thailand border have always caught my interest to ride in Kok Mak Stable.
There is a big arena for riding activities.

The greens around the riding track makes the riding experience extra relaxing.
A number of stable boxes next to the big arena.

There is a big open area in front of the stables for chilling out.
Imagine sipping a warm cup of coffee in the morning watching sunrise, or a BBQ dinner in the evening with your favorite people, anyone?
There are also many boxes for the horses.

The row of stable next to the arena with thick saw dust for the horses’ comfort.
I always appreciate stable who put the name signage for their horses. It shows how much they care. It’s the little acts that count.

The signage of I Love Kenaf. As you can tell, the sun was bright as we passed.
Kenaf is a warm-season annual row crop in the same plant family as okra and cotton. In Malaysia, kenaf is fast becoming the country’s 3rd industrial crop after palm oil and rubber.
Kenaf plants are capable of growing to a height of 20 feet under favorable conditions; however, heights generally average 8 to 14 feet in a growing season of 4 to 5 months.
