Fraser's Hill
Fraser’s Hill was developed in the 1920s as a cool climate hill station, mostly for colonialists working in Malaya. Bungalows were erected to accommodate British public servants, private companies and individuals, while some commercial buildings were built along with three convalescent homes. Fraser’s Hill extends over seven hills ranging from 1,200m to 1,456m above sea level. The temperatures here are cooler than in the lowlands, even dropping below 20o C in the evening. Fraser’s Hill surprises many visitors with its wide range of outdoor activities, including birdwatching and jungle trekking in the cool mountain air.
Archery and fun family activities are offered at MCM Outdoor Centre. Other recreation pursuits include fishing, climbing, golfing, biking and walking. Golf was an essential part of the hill’s early development and a challenging nine-hole layout still appeals. Visitors can walk along eight forest trails with a maximum length of only one kilometre long, together with the trail head information and signboards. Most trails are suitable for recreational walkers, while the longest, the Pine Trail, appeals to experienced trekkers.
