Malaysia's oldest hill resort is located on Bukit Larut
(formerly known as Maxwell Hill), and is accessible only
by four-wheel drive vehicles. The road up twists and turns
through the tropical virgin jungle, the fresh green fragrance
and cool air greeting you as you ascend. At the summit you
are treated to a spectacular view of the West Coast of the
peninsula. Visitors can either stay at the Bukit Larut Resthouse
or make reservation through the Superintendent of Bukit
Larut, Taiping, at Tel: 05-827243/827241. A Land Rover service
at the foot of the hill is available at hourly intervals
from 7.00am to 6.00pm daily. Fares are RM2.50 for adults
and RM1.00 for children.
