But this place is well made and despite the high entrance fee, we think it’s worth a look-see if you’re not in a hurry.

See more photos of Hobbitoon Village.

2. Get Interesting Souvenirs At Green View Garden

Behind this large chocolate shop is a well-kept garden that is free to enter. And they do have a Japanese restaurant and open-air café on site too.

See more pictures of Green View Garden.

Opening hours: 9am to 6:30pm

3. Go Shutter-Crazy At Agro Market

This is one of the latest attractions. Inside, there’s a spacious flower park. And one unique section called Mini Santorini. Best of all, is the impressive aviary.

Outside, there is space for market stalls in the modern complex too. Furthermore, there is a visitor carpark which makes for convenient parking.

Opening hours: 8:30am to 6:30pm

4. Pick Your Own Strawberries At A Farm

The cooler environment enables strawberries to flourish! You will not see them growing in the lowlands.

Thus, picking strawberries is a must-try activity! Kids and city folk will find it fun to pick their own strawberries!

The strawberry season is typically between May and August. Many farms let you pick your own (and charge by weight).

4.1. Big Red Strawberry Farm

This is a hillside strawberry farm on the way to the mossy forest. And it is close to Cactus Valley too.

They have a cafe on-site where you can taste their strawberry ice cream, strawberry juice and have cream tea with their strawberry jam!

  • Opening hours: 8:30am to 6pm (9am to 6pm on Saturdays & Sundays)
  • Contact: +605-491 3327

Here are more strawberry farms you can visit. It’s a good idea to have a back-up plan if you’re going during school holidays.

5. Stop At A Bee Farms

Learn about the fascinating life cycle of bees and sample honey at bee farms.

Highlands Apiary Farm is run by serious local honey producers so if you really want to know more about the process and the bees, you can mark this place down for a visit!

Plus, they have a section for growing strawberries too.

There’s no charge to enter either. And you’ll be able to see the bees through a transparent hive! But do take care when you visit this farm as these are not the stingless sort.

While you’re here, you can pick up some honey-related souvenirs too! Honey sticks are popular among kids.

See more photos of Highlands Apiary Farm. We recommend a visit to EE Feng Gu Bee Farm for their lovely garden that is free to visit too.

6. Get A Prickly New Friend From A Cactus Nursery

There are two cactus nurseries you can visit. However, you can see cactus for sale in most gardens and markets.

6.1. Cactus Valley

Cactus Valley has giant cacti on display – some of which are over 80 years old!

They have other plants here too. Like bird of paradise, fuchsia, camellia, and geranium, to name a few.

We would not recommend this place if you don’t like stairs though.

6.2. Cactus Point

If you have any intention to buy a cactus, they sell them (and other gardening supplies) cheap here! Especially if you buy more. Naturally, this cactus nursery is a hit with plant enthusiasts!

7. Spot A Raja Brooke At A Butterfly Farm

The Butterfly Farm houses many species of butterfly (like the Raja Brooke) in the butterfly enclosure.

You can see insects, reptiles, as well as a mini petting zoo and aviary. For this reason (and the low entrance fees), the Butterfly Farm is popular with local families.

Next to Butterfly Farm is Butterfly Garden and the two are similar attractions. At both places though, many of the animals are in a very sorry state.

We are only including these two places into our list so that more tourists are aware of this issue. We don’t recommend anyone to visit these places.

  • Address: MDCH 3, Batu 43, Green Cow, 39100, Pahang
  • Opening hours: Daily from 8:30am to 6pm
  • Entrance fee: Ranges from RM5 to RM10

8. Explore Agro Technology Park MARDI Cameron Highlands

MARDI is the Malaysian Research and Development Institute – the oldest research center in Malaysia, actually!

Surprisingly, it’s not as well-known as some of the other places to visit in Cameron Highlands.

MARDI Agrotechnology Park In Cameron Highlands

If you don’t have much time in Cameron Highlands, MARDI has a bit of everything in one huge park! Flowers, vegetable plots, and even a mini tea plantation.

Wander through the 42 acres divided into many gardens. There is a shop where you can buy plants too.

9. Find Your Instagram Moment At The Lavender Garden

Other than strawberries, flowers thrive in the cooler climate too!

Lavender Garden has a very advantageous location along a main road. They have two levels to explore with 3 different lavender species on the ground level.

Besides lavender, they have other flowers including gerbera daisies of assorted colors as well as hydrangea, morning glory flowers, etc.

There is a mini strawberry section and gift shop. You can try lavender ice cream here too! Lavender Garden’s age is starting to show though, and we do personally prefer newer attractions over this place.

See more photos of Lavender Garden.

  • Address: 59, Brinchang, 39000 Tanah Rata, Pahang
  • Opening hours: Monday – Thursday: 9am to 6pm; Friday – Sunday: 9am to 7pm

10. Wander Among Flowers At Rose Gardens

There are two rose gardens you can stop at if you are particularly fond of roses. Both locations have many species of roses to see.

10.1. Rose Valley

Get your fill of roses at Rose Valley, this is a hillside garden by the main road.

If you really want to cover every corner of this place, allocate an hour. And you can stroll at your leisure too since there are few visitors here.

Note: Due to age and a lack of maintenance, some parts are run down and can be dangerous when it has just rained (i.e. slippery) so watch your step!

They have plants for sale and a souvenir shop too but not at bargain prices. The real bargain is the entrance fee, at just RM5 per adult!

More photos of Rose Valley.

  • Address: No.148, Kampung Tringkap, 39000 Tanah Rata, Pahang
  • Opening hours: Daily from 9:30am to 6pm
  • Entrance fee: RM5

10.2. Orchid And Rose Garden (O&R Garden)

It might look deceivingly small at first glance but Orchid And Rose Garden has an impressive and well-maintained collection of trees and flowers (including roses).

Large Rose At O&R Garden

Kids will enjoy feeding the animals they have – fish, geese, goats, rabbits, ducks, and chickens. We still disapprove very much of such mini zoos, but the garden is pretty.

It’s a good place to get away from the crowds and pass away some time outdoors. They even have a short jungle walk trail to explore if you have the right shoes for it!

Read more about O&R Garden.

  • Address: 74, Green Cow, 39100, 39100, Pahang
  • Opening hours: Daily from 9am to 6pm
  • Entrance fee: RM10 (Adults), RM5 (Kids)

11. Relax At A Tea Plantations

Like the farms and gardens, there are many tea plantations to choose from!

With their rolling green hills and quaint tea houses, these are very scenic places to spend the morning or afternoon.

11.1. Boh Tea Estate Habu

Getting to BOH Habu Tea Estate involves narrow uphill roads, and some of them are only one-way.

A Viewpoint At Boh Tea Estate Habu (Fairlie Boh Tea Plantation)

But once you’re here, you can take in the views and fresh air away from all the tourists that normally head for the more glamorous BOH Sungai Palas tea estate!

There is a small and quaint cafe on site as well. Which is convenient while you wait for the next available factory tour slot!

  • Opening hours: Daily from 9am to 4:30pm (Closed on Mondays)
  • Entrance fee: Free
  • Remark: Simple factory tour is available

11.2. Cameron Valley Tea House 1

Sip on masala or cardamon tea and have light nibbles from the open-air cafe while gazing out at the luscious valley below.

It used to cost nothing to head down from the cafe to explore the tea valley but now there’s an entrance fee. And this does not include the fee for the shuttle service.

Because Cameron Valley Tea House 1 is visible from the main road, you can expect a lot of visitors here. There are two more tea houses under Bharat Sdn. Bhd. and the second one is close to this first tea house.

Note: Steep steps are unsuitable for elderly and young children

  • Opening hours: Monday-Thursday: 8:30am to 6pm; Friday-Sunday: 8am to 7pm

11.3. BOH Sungai Palas Tea Centre

This is the place that many have in mind and if you want to go here without fighting with the crowds, go as early as you can.

We avoid coming here during school holidays and public holidays (including Singaporean school holidays and public holidays).

12. Have Tea And Scones In The Cooler Climate

It is a lovely but expensive venue to have high tea – they have both indoor and outdoor seating. The scones are nice, but it is the setting that is the star of the show.

12.2. Jim Thompson Tea Room

For an “atas” (slang for luxury in Malaysia) feel, you can try this posh place in an elegant colonial-style mansion.

The tearoom is on the ground floor of Cameron Highlands Resort. Afternoon tea is served from 3-6pm. We’ve been here a few times, and the food and ambiance always impress!

We personally recommend Singh Chapati in particular. The hearty meals will leave you very satisfied and content!

Mutton Masala And Chapati By Singh Chapati URBAN Restaurant In Tanah Rata

But you’ll need to go early to avoid the dinner crowds for this one! And do let the friendly family who run the restaurant know what your spice tolerance is.

It also takes a while for them to cook the food so be patient.

Recommended dishes include:

  • mutton masala
  • chapati
  • vegetable biryani
  • butter paneer and smoky aubergine
  • Opening hours: Daily from 1:30 pm–4:30 pm, and again at 6:30 pm–9:30 pm

Quick Review of ATV Activity:

Vehicles are not in amazing shape but good enough for the short 30-minutes ride.

The guide will show you how to start and drive the ATV (there is no practice run). Safety seems to be taken too casually here. But you do get helmets!

And the speed doesn’t get higher than 50 km/h.

18. Go Hiking

Hiking is a fantastic way to get a real feel of the environment and natural surroundings. This does mean going through a moist jungle on hilly terrain.

So, have solid hiking shoes and ample drinking water. A poncho or umbrella and a light sweater/jacket will come in handy!

Undergrowth At Coral Hill, Brinchang

The app, Maps.me (offline maps) can also be a lifesaver if you lose signal on your phone during the trail! We don’t recommend going solo as people have gotten lost before.

End Of The Forest At Coral Hill, Brinchang
End Of The Forest

As an alternative to the Mossy Forest, we recommend Coral Hill. This hike is short, and free to enter. But once you do get to the top, be very careful as it is an exposed rocky outcrop.

Other hiking trails you might want to check out.

19. Head Up To The Mossy Forest

The top of Gunung Brinchang is home to a well-known mossy forest.

And while it used to be free to visit, visitors to the mysterious mossy forest now have to pay an entrance fee!

See the dedicated post on the Mossy Forest of Brinchang if you want to know more!

20. Discover Waterfalls

A prominent part of Cameron Highlands’ beautiful, lush mountains are the waterfalls!

Robinson Falls is just outside of Tanah Rata.

If you want to drive to this waterfall, head in the direction of the Cameron Highlands Hospital.

And about 500m before reaching the hospital, take the road on the right with a huge billboard and a small sign for Robinson Waterfall.

Robinson Falls, Cameron Highlands
Robinson Falls, Cameron Highlands – Photo by Travelswithsun

Turn into this road for about 100m. There should second billboard and a concrete bridge made with colorful tires! Follow the bridge in and you will presently see the waterfall in less than 1 km.

If you’re up for a hike, you can also access Robinson Falls via Trail No.9 where the starting point is MARDI.

Note: Waterfalls in Cameron Highlands are often victims of litterbugs. Don’t expect them to look pristine.

Read more about the waterfalls of Cameron Highlands.

21. Shop For Local Produce & Souvenirs

21.1. Kea Farm

A pasar pagi (morning market) is another place you can check out for local snacks and souvenirs. The market in Kea farm starts at 8am every day.

Stalls sell vegetables and fruit, spices, household stuff, street food, souvenirs like handicrafts, tea and honey, clothes, and accessories!

We recommend trying the ice cream at the PUKU Cafe in Kea Farm Market. Even if you don’t, PUKU ice cream is available at several places – like the Sheep Sanctuary and CH Flora Park.

Note: The traffic in this area is a nightmare to navigate through. Especially during public holidays and weekends.

21.2 Cameron Centrum

This is a happening place to be at night. There are coffee franchises like Starbucks. And the mall has an open-air hall with clocktower and other decorations. It almost has a Christmas-like atmosphere.

Clock Tower At Cameron Centrum, Brinchang

Downstairs is a supermarket (Billion Supermarket) too. Local supermarkets can be a great place to discover local snacks and fruit.

Other notable shops at this outdoor mall include, Watson, Baskin Robbins, Tealive, Family Mart, etc.

  • Opening hours: 10am to 10pm

22. See Temples Of Different Cultures

Take a closer look at the religious harmony in Cameron Highlands!

You can find a Hindu temple (Sri Thendayuthapani Swami Temple), Buddhist temple and mosque practically side by side in Brinchang!

Sam Poh Temple is a yellow and red Buddhist temple is home to a large Buddhist statue. The temple has a calming atmosphere and spacious grounds even though it doesn’t look like much from the outside.

And thus, there are many restaurants specializing in steamboat. See our recommendations for steamboat restaurants in Cameron Highlands.

24. Visit An Orang Asli Village Of Cameron Highlands

Pay a visit to the indigenous people (orang asli in Malay) that live in Malaysia! There are some villages on the way up to Cameron Highlands. While others are in the jungle.

Some of the natives run shops by the roadside selling wares such as herbs (tongkat ali is a popular one), rattan crafts, petai etc.

A tour is necessary to visit them in the villages. Guides will take you in to learn about their culture.

25. Climb To The Top Of Cameron Highlands Flora Park

Cameron Highlands Flora Park has many different sections to explore. Including dazzling white stairs that curve up a hill covered with light purple flowers.
