Highlands, Pahang state's premier hilltop holiday spot.
The hill which occupies the North Western state of Pahang
is Malaysia's largest and most popular hill resort, about
3 1/2 hour drive from Kuala Lumpur. The cool and fresh air
on the highlands offers an attractive retreat for city dwellers,
and also the visitors. Temperature here hovers between 16
to 20O C. Discovered by a British surveyor, William Cameron
in 1885, this highland paradise still retains much of an
English village.
Cameron Highlands is famous for its tea plantation, such
as the Bharat Tea Estate, Boh Tea Plantation, Vegetable
Farm, Sungai Palas Tea Estate, and Fruit Farms. The hills
here are fertile, and perfect for plantations. Other than
these plantations, mountain hiking is also one of the enjoyable
activities in the highlands, among the mountains are the
Gunung Beremban & Gunung Jasar. There are also hiking
trails, and waterfalls, such as the Parit Waterfall and
Robinson Waterfall. Each part of the highlands combines
an individual charm and attractions, for a memorable holiday.
