The Cameron Highlands provide all travelers and visitors an opportunity to enjoy a memorable holiday no matter what time of the year it may be. Many people will surely not have seen a butterfly in the open for a long time.

A trip to Cameron Highlands Malaysia gives one an opportunity to view these magnificent insects in its two absolutely wonderfully attractive butterfly farms. A journey to the Highlands is like going back the old days where one could savor fresh and healthy fruits and vegetables. The visitors will be surprised to see farms dotting the highlands throughout. This is mainly due to the cool climate and fertile soil of the highlands. A visit to the fruits and vegetable farms is generally followed up with a trip to the tea plantations. It is said that a trip to the highlands is incomplete without paying a visit to its fabulous tea plantations. A most common attractive feature of the highlands are the 'strawberries farms' which can be found almost anywhere in the area. The attractive feature is that they offer locally grown strawberries and home made strawberry jams at reasonable prices. At times one might be fortunate to come across strawberry farms which allow visitors to pluck strawberries for themselves and charge them according to weight.

The Cameron highlands are a very popular destination for the adventurous tourists. The highlands provide ample scope for camping activities which is gaining in popularity with each passing day amongst the more adventurous of the travelers. To spend a night/nights in the rainforest away from one's usual city lifestyle is an enriching and unforgettable experience. Most tourists who are fond of the wild and love nature, usually, have it on their agenda to make a trip to the mountains. The travelers and hikers can get hold of maps for the more common routes at local shops or from tour operators to make it easy for them to negotiate the mountain trails. The range of jungle treks come in such a variety that they are able to satisfy a wide range of nature lovers. The majority of the trails are located in the vicinity of the area around Tanah Rata. The jungle treks invariably lead waterfalls and the mountains!

The way to get to the highlands is by road. Ever since the opening of the new Simpang Pulaia road, traveling to the highlands has become easier. Earlier there was just one route from the south via Tapah. One can take another third route from the east coast via Gua Musang in Kelantan. However, traveling along this road has not yet been gazetted by the authorities. The roads have a lot of sharp bends. However, if one drives a little carefully, it can be quite pleasant especially because the roads have been recently upgraded. The travel along the roadways provides one with some great views of the mountains. The Cameron Highlands accommodation include some guest houses which provide one with motorbike rental services which the tourists can use for their movement around the town. The terrain is not conducive to bicycles and more so because of the high traffic.
