Cameron Highland Tree House

A short trip to Cameron Highland around the corner of Chinese New Year... This time we came to a place called Terra Farm Tree House situated at the mountainside of Brinchang... A farm house that is build from the surrounding natural resources by the Indigenous people there... It is just 5 km away from the nearest town but you need 4 X 4 to access.....

From the entrance at bottom of the hill you need to walk up 400m to the Tree House where by take you around 20 min slow walk.... It is quite tough walk up for those who lacks exercise, but it sure is a good opportunity to destress a bit and feel the fresh air around the forest...

My girl is already starting to take her own sweet time with the hanging hammock...

There are 6 Tree Houses sitting along the ridge forest trail at these mountainside with very basic facility, it is a no frills lodging at all but this is the best way to get close to mother nature....

These Tree House is fully build with bamboo and palm's leaf from this forest....

Well, consider yourself staying at a 5 star camping site with an abound of fresh air and scenic view...

A good hang out time with the family around the fire wood while waiting for bugs...

Fresh air in the morning with hot beet root rice for breakfast.... what a healthy way to start the day...

My girls love this place very much and hope to come back for another stay.....
