Cameron Highlands: Mossy Forest Tour
Description
The mossy forest is a natural environment that grows only at the highest elevations of Cameroon Highlands and other mountain ranges across Malaysia. At such heights,low-level clouds in the sky driven by winds, blanket the forests with constant mist and moisture - creating an ideal biotope for moss,ferns,lichen and orchids. This moist tropical evergreen forest is also a rich repository for a varied set of montane creatures.encompassing insects,snakes,frogs,birds and mammals unique to this chilly atmosphere.Visitors can explore the mossy forest through a boardwalk 2km before the peak of Gunung Brinchang, begining from a clearing along the main road.

The tea plantation and Mossy Forest were great places to visit but so busy and so many tourists and vehicles. The Strawberry Farm and Butterfly Garden much quieter. Mary, our guide, was a good driver and very informative. Definitely worth doing the tour when in Cameron Highlands!
Why it is magical? It feels like in the LOTR movie 😁. We were hiking up Mount Irau via mossy forest. Recommended. But pls check out the weather. Make sure no rain in a week
Natural rain forest well maintained and have safety features in place. Its a must to here and feel the ambience of silence, fresh air and misty surroundings.
Dear Sir , Madam , Thank you for a good review. I am glad you like visiting our first hill station with lush hill landscape of Cameron Highlands Tea Plantations. The weather and it's fertile soil makes this place ideal for flowers , vegetables and Tea Plantation. We look forward to serve you again.
The views were amazing we took a picture of a snake one disadvantage is that there are too many stairs to climb.
Dear Sir , Madam Good Day We are glad you enjoyed the trip. The Mossy Forest is a very prestige forest. Most forest when mention is humid and high tree top canopy. The steps we build to avoid guest from stepping on the slippery ground. Elevated at 3000ft above sea level , air is cooler and ground is moist. Please visit the Aboriginal Native Village on your next visit. We look forward to serve you again. Sincerely, MH Team
