There are
many things to see and do in Cameron Highlands,
Malaysia's largest highland resort. Walks through lovely
little villages, visits to the butterfly, strawberry,
honey bee farms and sprawling tea plantations or meals
at the delightful Tudor-styled country inns, are all
pleasurable and relaxing activities to be experienced
here. You can't beat the weather up here. A few days out
of the sweltering lowland heat will surely recharge your
batteries.
One other
popular activity in Cameron Highlands, actually more of
a tradition, is to have tea and scones. This very
English tradition dates back to the days when English
colonial officers used this hilly location as a cool
getaway from the heat of the lowlands. Bird-watching and
trekking are also popular activities here.
Situated
1,500 metres above sea level, Cameron Highlands
comprises a series of little townships that include
Ringlet, Tanah Rata, Brinchang, Tringkap, Kuala Terla
and Kampung Raja. What's more, it's easy to get to.
Cameron Highlands lies less than an hour off the main
North-South Highway, and is a pleasant, easy 3.5-hour
drive from Kuala Lumpur.
