[Currently Closed] Jungle Walk Trail #1, Brinchang, Cameron Highlands, Malaysia
We exit from our hotel in center of Brinchang in morning. Is was little cold, and many butterflies still sleep on walls and road. But we going to walking in Jungle.
First we walk near road approximately 500 meters. You will see crossroad with yellow table what show right direction to Jungle Walk #1.
Here is a right crossroad. Jungle Walking Trail #1 - longest walking trip in Cameron Highlands.
Going straight on this road.
First is will be ordinary road in city, you will see private houses and backyards.
On next crossroad, you will meet another one yellow table, and you need go right road. Somebody building new house.
I see liana!
This is a next crossroad, and as I see is last point where you can came on car. Here you need go left road. Goodbye good road, see you later!When you continue walk you will see a large water tank surrounded by a fence, this is a right direction, go left, walk near fence.We came to place where before was little bridge, but now bridge damage, so we go down to the ditch and than go up. Is make us little dirty, but is was only first obstacle what we met on our trail.Hey hey, only 1.92 km walking! Yellow table show distance to final destination of trail - top of Gunung Brinchang, and distance back to Brinchang city.
We began to climb to the top.
Trail have border, please do not cross this. First this border keep you on save and right direction. Second - border protect nature from people, is so easy damage plants what grow here many years, please be careful.
Don’t worry, this forest is safe, don’t have any mosquito or leaches, and you can see wild orchids around. But actually, we didn’t see any orchid in this jungles, possible we go in wrong season. Is was some another flowers, but not very many.
Sun is up and temperature up also, anyway not forget take some extra close for not freeze, and of cause take water.
We was lucky and this day not was any rain. But I’m sure, walking on Trail #1 can be much more hard if rain came.
Be careful! See very careful before touch any liana!
We stay in Hotel what have name “Check Inn” in center of Brinchang. In hotel work very friendly staff. Especially we want tell thank you to Muhammad, for his detail advice. He is help to us choice this trail and tell all details for we easy can find right way.
Mount Gunung Brinchang have a height 2032 meters, and this is a highest mountain in Cameron Highlands, and second height in Malaysia. On top of this mountain you can walk 2 km on Trail #1 or you can drive car on mountain road. This is a highest place of Malaysia what you can reach by the car. But I very not recommend use little car for came to this place, road have big holes in some parts and you can damage your car. Local people very often use Land Rover. Length of road for car approximately 13 km.
As you see summary you need walk in Jungle 2 km, and ordinary you will need 2 hour for do this. But we record video and take pics, so we use 4 hours for this trip.

When to Cameron Highlands(CH) last October. CH located in Perak, about 2 hours from Ipoh and 5 hours from KL by bus. The average temperature is below 27'c along the year because of the altitude. There are many Strawbery Farm, Vegetables farm, Tea Plantation and many more.
If u are coming here, I recomend u to stay at Brinchang rather than Tanah rata. It is because of the location for many farm.

Cameron Highlands Malaysia
Brief description of the eight neighbourhoods.
The Bertam Valley is a scenic spot about two kilometres from Ringlet. It is involved with the growing of fruits, flowers and vegetables. It is now the Highlands' new entryway from Pahang via Sungei Koyan from Raub or Kuala Lipis.
Brinchang is the -Camerons- second biggest town. The majority of its visitors are from Singapore or Malaysia. It is close to the -central market-, orchards, nurseries, museum and golf course.
Besides these attractions, the place is also known for its teeming -Night Market-. The outdoor bazaar is usually held during the Malaysian school holidays or on weekends.
Kampung Raja is a residential area. It is the first colony after the turn off from Simpang Pulai. From here one can proceed to either Ipoh in Perak or to Gua Musang in Kelantan.
Kea Farm is located at an altitude of (1,600 metres (5,200 ft)). It is one of the highest villages in Peninsular Malaysia. It is adjacent to the tea estates and Mount Batu Brinchang (Malay: Gunung Batu Brinchang).Kuala Terla is a farming commune. Its main activity is the cultivation of fruits, flowers and vegetables. Located about four kilometres from Kampung Raja, it has a mixed population comprising Chinese, Indians and Malays. Most of the residents here have no difficulties communicating in Malay.
Ringlet is the first town after the turn off from Tapah. It is one of the agricultural hubs of the resort. A wide variety of vegetables are grown at this township. The cool climate also favours the growing of passion fruit, strawberries and grapefruit.Tanah Rata is the administrative centre of the retreat. The police station, government offices, hospital, schools, library, post office, shops, banks, eateries, inns, chalets, bus station and taxi stand are all within walking distance.
Amenities aside, the town is also noted for its intricate network of jungle tracks: trails 4 and 9 lead to the waterfalls; the rest meander to mountains, scenic spots or aboriginal villages.
Most of the walks here are fairly well marked. They generally intersect with each other to form a -loop- around the city.
Tringkap is a farming enclave. It is a focal point for the growing of vegetables. A high percentage of its crops are grown on tiered terraces. The bulk of its produce is exported to Singapore.
