Where to travel in Malaysia. Cameron Highlands ( Tanah Rata )
We make our way to Tanah Rata which is the largest town in the Cameron Highlands and the centre of all the attractions. We drive past stunning jungle and mountain views and arrive just before dawn. On our first day we explore the township and visit the local Robinson waterfall and try our luck on the jungle trail no 9 where we were attacked by dogs and had to abandon. Day 3 we take a local tour and visit the mossy forest, tea plantations and a butterfly farm with a final visit to the Lake house.
A hike through trail #9 in Cameron Highlands
It was generally a nice trail. A little deserted but nothing out of the ordinary. I wasn't aware of its notoriety until I was on my way back to the hostel and reading the horror stories on TripAdvisor. Perhaps the camera on my head saved me from the dogs. The man with the dogs really encouraged me to go on, fortunately there was no one waiting behind a tree to mug me.

Hiking Trail 9 of Robinson Falls at Cameron Highlands-Malaysia (September 2017)
Hiking Trail 9 of the Robinson Falls at Cameron Highlands. This is the beginning of the trail 9. It's past 6pm and this trail is notorious for its robberies where the attacker would flashed out a machete with some dogs attacking the victims. In fact, many locals and hotel staffs advised me not to take this trail. Fearing for my safety i only ventured a mere 200 meters. The terrain is very slippery and uneven, any mishaps will be fatal.

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.

Cameron Highlands:
Cameron Highlands is a very famous range of mountains located in one of the states of Malaysia, in Pahang. It's highest peak is Gunung Brinchang with 6,666 feet. Cameron Highlands offer its visitors unbelievable holidays with ever green scenery, picturesque little towns, valleys and hills. Cameron Highlands is the Malaysia largest highlands very popular for backpackers, and even for families who are eager for some adventure and fresh fruit and vegetable.
Brinchang, other town just 5 km from Tanah Rata, has not many budget hostels and guesthouses. Ringlet town almost none. But both Tanah Rata and Brinchang are pretty full of hotels if you are not on a budget. Anyway, more is happening in Tanah Rata when it comes to food and life. Brinchang is more quiet. So when coming to Cameron Highlands by bus, just say to the driver if you want to get off in Brinchang or Tanah Rata so he knows where to leave you.
Things to do in Cameron Highlands:Depends on your peace, but usually a couple of days are enough to visit Cameron Highlands. Their beauty will get stuck in your heart for long time after you leave anyway, even if you just spent a couple of hours in there, or just observed it from a bus. I stayed there for 2 days and saw a lot, but would prefer to stay longer if only I had more time.
Jim Thomson's trail -- in 1967 there was this Jim Thomson, a WW II militay officer who dissapeared while trekking in Cameron Highlands. You can follow his path around Cameron Highlands, just don't get lost, please :)
Cactus Valley -- you can get here walking from Brinchang town which takes from 5 to 10 minutes. For 4 RM (around 1 Euro) you can see thousands of cactus plants (some of them are 60 years old), apple trees, strawberries, tomatoes, roses, gerbera, impatiens, birds of paradise, anthuriums, lilies, and even dried flowers.
Butterfly Garden -- there are two next to each other. The entrance fee is 5 RM for each (just a bit more than 1 Euro). You can see everything there in about 30 minutes. Apart from the big colourful butterflies living there, you will get the chance to see bugs, chameleons, lizards, frogs, leaf sticks, grasshoppers, snakes and other weird animals living in the rainforest. They are huge and most of them almost invisible.
BOH Tea Estate -- there are two in Cameron Highlands, one is hard to get to between Tanah Rata and Ringlet, the other, more famous one, is close to Brinchang. A road leads there opposite the Market Square where walking will take you around 1 hour. It is a bit hilly and curvy, but not very difficult to walk (I walked it in flip-flops). Maybe if you are lucky, a car will stop and get you there. Yeah, just like this when they see you, or you can hitchhike. But even if not, the green scenery full of tea trees is something you will never forget. To say it was one of the best things I've ever seen in my life would be an understatement.
After all the stunning hills you will pass a little village of blue and green houses and an Indian temple where the farmers leave. Then on top of the road there is finally your destination. There is a restaurant with the best view ever offering different kinds of tea from the plantation, and some snacks, then a shop where you can buy tea packs and other souvenirs; photos and videos explaining you the history of BOH Tea Estate. And finally then you will get to know the process of making tea in the tea factory which consists of withering, rolling, fermentation, drying, sorting, tea tasting and packaging of tea. Both BOH Tea Estate factories in Cameron Highlands still use the same old equipment as in the 30′s when they were opened as it is the best. BOH Tea Estate has its own packaging factory and every year exports 4 million kg of tea (both domestic and international market.) BOH Tea Plantation is a must see in Cameron Highlands.
Trekking to Rafflesia Site -- there is a place full of Rafflesias -- the world's biggest flower (travel agencies include this place in many tours during the Rafflesia season.)
Trekking through the forest -- there are 14 trails in Cameron Highlands, just check out the map or ask in the tourist information. I did the trail from Tanah Rata to Robinson Waterfall and then trail number 9A. All the walking sometimes very harsh and slippery, was so worth it thanks to the absolutely amazing scenery of Cameron Highlands.
