RouteXpert Review
This route in Malaysia is the second day of a 3-day ride that is part of the “1000 Corners Malaysia”, a round trip of approximately 650km that starts and ends in Kuala Lumpur and takes you through the Pahang State Hills. There is a lot to see and do along the route, so planning a few extra days is well worth it. This day we drive just under 200 kilometers.We drive on beautiful two-lane roads such as the 102, C5 and the wonderfully beautiful and very winding 55 up to Fraser's Hill, the end of this ride. Along the way you see a lot of greenery and occasionally beautiful small rivers and villages.
We drive from Cameron Hills to the first stop Habu Boh Tea Center (RP2) to enjoy the beautiful view and a few more souvenirs. At RP3 we can fill up the engines and buy some drinks and food for the road.
We turn onto 102 and follow the course of the river (Sungai) Bertam Eastward. The road meanders between the mountains through the beautiful green nature, at RP5 you will see a large reservoir and dam on your left. There is a small parking bay at the dam if you want to stop for a photo.
After the dam the road turns south and we drive to Sungai Koyan (RP8) where we stop for lunch. Here are several small restaurants and shops. After lunch we drive towards Raub on the C5, this road has fewer curves but the area is still a real pleasure, with lots of green nature.
In Raub we turn 55, this is a very winding road to Fraser's Hill, really enjoyable and no time to rest because there seems to be no end to the bends. Also pay attention to many hairpin bends and the road is very narrow. At RP11 we come to the “Gate” to Fraser's Hill. Here we turn right to drive up the one-way road. Note here, TomTom wants to go straight ahead, which is incorrect. The way up is a single track road and very winding, at RP13 you have arrived at Fraser's Hill. Here you can park your motorcycle on the square to explore the area.
Fraser's Hill is a highland resort destination nestled among the mountains of Pahang, known locally as Bukit Fraser. This cooling holiday area is popular for its wildlife activities and cooling climate, being one of the last hill stations in Malaysia. There are several hotels here where you can stay overnight. An extra day to explore the beautiful surroundings is recommended.
