4. Mountain Strawberry Farm
This is another place where you can escape the holiday crowds. The farm is on the way to the mossy forest and because the road is narrow with many turns, you won’t find many people here.
Note: Personally, I felt a little uneasy in a group of just 2 girls though. The farm feels remote, and all the staff are male. We didn’t stay long.
But once here, you can get some interesting photos with strawberries. The staff will show you a lot of creative ways to take photos at their farm.
Picking strawberries here is affordable too at RM20 for 500g. Besides picking your own strawberries, you can get a strawberry milkshake at their onsite cafe.
They have free roaming goats on the farm as well.
