See this picture? This is what you get to see just 40 minutes away from the city (no its not Genting Highlands). Plus this was shot using a drone. But imagine enjoying such a view with your own eyes while standing on your two feet? This is what you will get to experience when you take part in our next overnight drive event, taking place on the 12th and 13th of October.
What is a Route Hunters Drive event?
At Route Hunters Malaysia we set out to document the best driving roads in Malaysia. Over the past decade we have documented over 100 driving roads outside of Ulu yam and Genting Highlands. More over, we have also found 100’s of eateries that serve some of the best in local cuisine, and places of interest to stop at which culminates into the ultimate Malaysian road trip. We call these the Episode Drive events, and the next one is happening this weekend.
What will be this weekend’s agenda?
This weekends event will see us criss crossing the longest mountain range in South East Asia. With most of the elevation hovering between 800-2000 meters above sea level, roads that cut through this mountain range is both spectacular and provides a unique driving experience. We will cut through the mountain range TWICE, driving across 4 different driving roads, stopping for fuel and lunch inbetween.
Our overnight stay
We will be staying overnight in Tanah Rata, Cameron Highlands. After spending the better part of the day attacking the corners of various driving roads across Selangor and Pahang, the cool mountain weather of Cameron Highlands would be just what we need to wind down. Also since the accommodation is in Tanah Rata, you do not have to endure the notorious weekend traffic that plagues the rest of Cameron Highlands. The hotel itself is walking distance to most of the eateries and hangout spots in Tanah Rata.
The event highlight.
The main event of this drive is witnessing the sunrise over the sea of clouds. One of the advantages of starting a sunrise drive from the highlands is that you’re already sitting at a high altitude. Next is the surrounding rainforest, which in the morning has a heavy amount of mist which when seen over an altitude looks extremely dramatic, like a sea made entirely out of clouds. As the sun rises over the mountains, and the rays shimmer across the clouds and on to your face, its like mother nature herself is smiling at you. This is something you need to experience once to get it.
