Mossy Forest

The mossy forest is a natural environment that grows only at the highest elevations of Cameron Highlands and other mountain ranges across Malaysia. At such heights, low-level clouds in the sky driven by winds, blanket the forests with constant mist and moisture, creating an ideal biotope for moss, ferns, lichen, and orchids. It is something you don’t get to see often in Malaysia, and you’ll be able to take some gorgeous photographs here.

This moist tropical evergreen forest is also a haven for a diverse array of montane creatures, including insects, snakes, frogs, birds, and mammals that are only found in this cold climate. Visitors can explore the mossy forest via a boardwalk 2 kilometers before Gunung Brinchang's peak, which is accessible by road from the Boh Tea Sungai Palas intersection.
