The place might be cool at night, especially after rain, a light sweater or long sleeve shirt is needed to keep warm. There are lots of places to shop for fruits, vegetables & flowers, best is to travel by car.

We visited this area very short time, we enjoyed nature very well. We travelled around by car and saw some very nice places.

Cameron Highland is very far form KL and Penang which takes six hours by bus. You can save time by using taxi which takes 3.5 hours with only RM160(CH-KL).

A good place for those that prefer a quite retreat, Jungle Trial and Town is within walking distance. For those that expect shopping mall nearby, don't come here!

My husband and I flew into KL airport and hired a car from there. The best way to journey to the Highlands in my opinion.
The drive was about 4 hours, but you pass through some stunningly beautiful scenery which makes the long journey worhth every minute.
We drove as far North as you can on the Cameron Highlands map, and didn't really find anything particulary interesting to see. We stopped in at Butterfly gardens, where we saw thousands of butterflies horribly trapped in a neglected wired enclosures, fighting for thier lives. We didn't visit the tea factory as we are from Ceylon, so figured we had been there done that.
The Highlanders seemed proud of their very tourist destinations - ie cactus farm -where they have grown thousands of cacti so tourist can go see...go figure...
But there are strawberries to be picked, which are delicious, and the Old Smoke house- the other boutique restaurant to visit, oh and lot of golf to be played, if that does it for you.
The smokehouse is much older than the lakehouse, and is much pricier. Very beautiful. It really felt we were spending a summer afternoon in the heart of England. They boast an a la carte menu, but if the roast turkey, stuffing and potatoes is anything to go buy- dont bother eating there.
The rooms are lovely, cosy, authentic looking, even the cheapest has a living area, separate from the bedroom. Perfect if you are staying a couple of days, a bit claustrophobiic if you holiday plans are longer.
We were in the mood to do absolutely nothing ,so unfortunatley i cant tell you about the jungle trekking!

Cameron Highlands are very beautiful although rapidly being spoilt by out of control high rise developments. Tour of the tea plantation is a highlight. Good jungle trekking although the paths are often not well signed.

A car is essential as all activities/walks etc are 20mins drive away in Tanah Ratah.
