Overview
Take a trip to Cameron Highlands on your Malaysia Vacation
As a destination for Malaysia vacations, the Cameron Highlands, situated in the centre of Peninsular Malaysia, is a series of hill stations at altitudes ranging from 1500 to 1800m (4920 to 5904ft).
Located 200kms north of Kuala Lumpur, the Cameron Highlands covers a span of 712 sq. km and features Malaysia’s highest point above sea level (5000ft), accessible by road.
The Cameron Highlands is named after William Cameron, a British surveyor, who, in 1885 was commissioned by the colonial government of the time to map out the. Initially planned as a development for a sanatorium, health spa, and farmland, it was finally developed as a hill station forty years later by Sir George Maxwell, as a development committee was formed in 1925, and road construction began from Tapah to the Highlands.
Today, attractions on a Malaysia tour in the Cameron Highlands include jungle walks, waterfalls, tours of tea plantations, beautiful gardens, and plenty of wildflowers. Featuring a glimmer of its colonial heritage, the Cameron Highlands is an ideal spot for rest and relaxation.
