I just finished reading this whole Cameron thread. Hahaha! Thanks for u guys, i got so many info about this place.

May i know where is the entrance for the Gunung Brinchang? Dangerous or not? Will we stuck in the hill???

From what i see from u guys, Century Pines & Strawberry is the best, right? How much for it now?

I stayed at...Rosa before, the condition is not really a good choice, try others.

I plan to go with my gf this coming May, may i know where have the best steamboat in Cameron?

Hahaha! Then i should go to HK then drool.gif ...j/k

Which restaurant got ying yang steamboat? Which food will b nicer, fresh n better?

I plan to stay at Century Pines, any problem there? As i see from the Heritage page, their room quite old n not nice but Century Pines are not bad...how about Strawberry compare with Century Pines?

Yeah, i stayed there before, not the ideal stay, not worth for the $$$. Good luck!


Sounds Strawberry Hotel is the best but which wing i should choose? New or old wing? Strawberry is located at Tanah Rata?

Strawberry is abit old & authentic swiss design...no new wing. the new & old wing thingy is Century pines...& I forgot to mentioned that strawberry is abit far on top of summit of a mountain in between Brinchang & Tanah Rata....so u really need transport as the road leading up to strawberry is abit steep & far away from the main road. Not adviseable for those without transport..it's about 4km away from both Bringchang & Tanah Rata!

For convenient & nearer to Tanah rata town....suggest getting Century Pine..walking disatnce away from the town. Heritage u need to walk up the hill unless u can find a shortcut via the convent school in front of Tanah Rata town biggrin.gif

BTW, saw your earlier query on how to go to Gunung brinchang...first go all the way to Kea Farm. After 1km from Equatorial, you will reach another road side stalls There is a signboard going to Boh Tea Plantation - Sg Palas & Gn Brinchang..turn left at the only junction at the road side stall..Be carefull as the road can only accomodate 1 car or 2 kancil at a time...so u really hv to be carefull here..once u reach the junction about 3KM from the main road, to the right is Boh Sg Palas & to the left is to Gn Brinchang from this jucntion it's only ~5km uphill to Gn Brinchang.....A must for those going to CH...That's the highest road in Pen Malaysia at 2066M or 6666ft! nice view up there..

Bro stimix, 1 Q i wanna ask u is...after 1KM from the Equatorial have the only junction on my left hand side with a stall there??? What kind of stall plus may i know after 1KM from Equatorial is which side? From Kg Raja or Brinchang??
As i referred to the info here, the road are very very bad, is it? Now still the same? The road are all the way up to the Gunung Brinchang or we still need to walk up? Will we get stuck in there? Is it safe? shocking.gif

Bro stimix, u stayed at Century Pines before? How was it? Oh ya, now only i know that the Strawberry Hotel is so far if u din tell me so. sweat.gif

Yes..  I was there in Oct'07. Not really far..u can park ur car somewhere near the trail head (Trail no9) & cross over to the other side of the river...just folow the trail beside the river until u reach the first fall (Man-made) ~300M from the parking. & then probably walk another 1Km to the fall..but for sure u can't swimm there...That's the photo I taken from opposite the fall right where I stand on the trail. Small -yes.. & water quality suxx big time..bcos of the over developement in CH!....No way U or me going to swim on the same water that flow from the same river/big drain opposite Tanah Rata town centre!!!

Ohhh...then we should organize a trip to track the Gunung Irau. Haha!

Anyway, thanks for the info bro. Besides that, i think not much people is on the top the peak, right? I mean not much people will go there.

Bro, nowadays the lady driver very skillful, u know? Haha...

So if i drive Pajero is that probably too big for the road? I'm worry about that...

From the Cameron Highlands map i saw, there's a Parit Waterfall nearby the Century Pines, is it nice? How to reach there? Thanks wink.gif
