Oh wow! Tough! I love walking but the incline got to me . I wasn’t really prepared for the challenge. Lesson learned. I need to get better walking shoes with tighter ankle grip for walking down. It took us 2 and a half hours up and less coming down. We started at 10am and lucky that the day wasn’t too hot. So glad we made it to the top ! Hydrate often!! Take tiny sips every few mins , and even coming down. 1 ltr bottle should be enough for 1 person to drink and carry down.

Quite a surprise. Tucked away behind a big Chinese temple is a huge cavernous cave. It houses a very serene Buddha and many other statues of Buddha and Chinese Gods. The paintings on the wall are very beautiful. There are many stalactites and stalagmites with water drips. There is a steep stair case taking you to the summit only for the fit ones. Worth a visit.

If you come through the Town if Tapah, on the way to Cameron Highlands,!this place is a nice place to stop for awhile. Some of Aussie guests went up high. Some of the stalls there sell bananas, fruits and Tongkat Ali, a natural herb that is supposedly like natural aphrodisiac! You can taste a cup or two at some of the vendors there

I initially wasn't sure if I wanted to go here based on some of the negative reviews here on TA but actually glad I did. It costs 36 Ringgit each if you are non Malaysian. A short 5 minute boat trip from the laketown resort area takes you to the island surrounded by the beautiful lake. As mentioned there are around 14 Orangutans of various different ages and apart from one which has been there since an infant who cannot be released, all others come here, get taken care of and then are placed in the wild. The place is relatively small and you walk in an enclosed walkway, the orangutans are free to roam. This is true up to a point since the Orangutans are indeed free to roam within their large open air enclosure areas but certainly not like a zoo where the roaming area is minimal. When we went, we were the only people on the island visiting and so had our guide to ourselves and saw various animals feeding- so felt like a personal tour. The animals are great characters and I hope they do get released back into the wild where the belong and I hope I have contributed a little bit for preserving this endangered species. There is a shop as well if interested in souvenirs.
