Fraser's Hill


This is another beautiful hill resort that I had visited. It was about two hours journey from Kuala Lumpur and located on the main range north of Kuala Lumpur. To reach Fraser's Hill from Kuala Lumpur, you must go north and hit for Kuala Kubu Bahru. From there follow the winding road to Raub, just before reaching the top there is a junction to the left that will take you all the way up to the top of Frasers Hill.

My last visit to this place coincided with the 'bird watching expedition' which was held here annually. That goes to say that there are many birds found in this area. Then again with the many participants around, the hotels were fully booked then. Since we had booked earlier, we managed to squeeze into the Merlin Hotel. It was cold up there and the climate was just wonderful for us.



The jungle surrounding the small township of Frasers Hill was so beautiful. We went to visit all the places accessible by car within the hillock area. The cool atmosphere was so refreshing with just the singging of birds heard around us. So quiet and beautiful. Managed to locate and see some bird species too which adds more beauty to the hill.
