How much was the mossy forest entrance ticket price?

Y’all are brave hiking during monsoon season, landslides are common in Cameron Highlands and can be deadly.

Hey! I'm also planning on backpacking through Malaysia & Borneo for a month this June. Wasn't sure whether to include the Cameron Highlands in my itinerary but this video is really helpful! Was the hike and the trip to the mossy forest & tea plantations organised through the hostel? I'm thinking of spending two nights there, so really only one full day. Safe travels!

so glad you found it useful!! yes, the mossy forest & tea plantations were part of the (paid) tours offered by the hostel, while the trail hikes are very casual and you just add your name to the list on a chalkboard so people can see who else is going and you go as a group (the hostel just help facilitate those planning on going and help with showing the route etc before we leave). i'd recommend at least two days in the Cameron Highlands because it generally tends to rain in the afternoons so there's not much to do (though that might be because i went during monsoon season and it's different in June but def worth checking!). you can hire a motorbike and explore other parts of the area too as there are other things to see like the night market, strawberry fields and other tea plantations!

@@violahelen_ Thanks for responding! Yeah, I'm still figuring out my exact itinerary & dates - I' know I'll be heading to the Perhentian Islands afterwards to do a diving course, so I'm just figuring out my route. Safe travels!
