I made yet another Malaysian road trip with two other friends over the weekend. It was a three day trip and our targets were the three main highlands of West Malaysia.
They were Fraser Hill, Genting Highlands & Cameron Highlands.
We crossed the border at around 9:30am and set our GPS towards Fraser hill, our first stop.
We reached the foot of Fraser Hill at around 4:30pm due to various stops for lunch and refueling the car.
The journey from the foot hill to the peak was wrought with traffic jams and treacherous narrow roads. I have never been to Fraser hill and this was my first time there.
First impressions upon entering the town was the peacefulness and extremely fresh air.
We passed a few folks with binoculars and SLRs with long lenses. As Fraser hill is a well known place to be for bird watchers it's not surprising to see people walking with their heads up, looking into the trees.
The town was littered with British Tudor styled houses and you might be mistaken that you have entered a British country side town.
The weather was fantastic too, I estimate it at around 22-23 degrees Celsius.

We sat down at a café and had some tea and snacks for about 40mins. After that we have to make our way down before it gets dark, as it's not safe to travel at night along the narrow roads down. We did not stay for the night as there was nothing to do there at night and we were not there to bird watch.
We descended the hill and headed towards Genting Highlands.
