Discover Everything about Fraser?s Hill, Malaysia

Posted by travelmlaysiainfo906 on March 14th, 2017

Fraser’s Hill is one of Malaysia’s most surprisingly satisfying short-stay locations. Driving up the tight twists and turns of the road to this hill station is an exhilarating experience, in fact the uphill road is so narrow that the final eight kilometre stretch is limited to one-way traffic at any time.

With a majority of Fraser’s Hill building structures featuring mock Tudor-style architecture, the Hill hasn’t changed much from its days as a British colonial hill resort. In addition, the essential photo stop opportunity at Fraser’s Clock tower, a hard-to-miss clock tower which stands in the old English village square, you can head on down to Allen’s Water, a former reservoir turned into a boating and fishing attraction.

Travel Tip: Always remember to take a bus while you are roaming in Malaysia. Buy online bus tickets from redbus.my, this will lessen your worries and make journeys happier. Book a bus and enjoy the roads of Malaysia!

There’s relatively little to do in Fraser’s Hill besides experiencing the cool mountainside breeze, taking short walk trails through the fertile forest and indulging in bird watching. The hill side is not known for its indoor offerings – it’s more famous for its relatively undeveloped landscape which results in impeccable jungles treks and exotic flora and fauna.

Fraser’s Hill’s ‘alpine’ location has pleasant temperatures than the rest of the country and as a result it is a quite famous retreat amongst naturalists and bird watchers. Featuring family-friendly jungle treks with rewarding views, the hillside is also a desired spot with hikers; there are eight nature walk trails accessible ranging from easy to hard. 

When the sun goes down, it goes without saying that this sleepy station doesn’t feature much nightlife – in point of fact, most people who turn up here prefer to return early before the night falls in order to wake up early the next morning.
