Mount Brinchang is Cameron Highland's highest peak and is constantly blanketed in a cloud of cool mist. You can see Mount Brinchang from almost anywhere in Cameron Highlands, even from Tanah Rata. Probably the only mountain in the country you can drive up, the road is a beautiful and eerie drive, with narrow roads and gentle turns, continuously revealing quirky highland vegetation especially dwarf trees, covered in moss. There is a lookout tower at the very top of Mount Brinchang, which is usually clouded by mist. On clear days however, you will be able to see Perak from here. There are many jungle paths around the slopes of this mountain that leads to several other high peaks, further in the Titiwangsa Range.

Getting there
The gateway to Cameron Highlands is Tapah, which is easily reached by bus, taxi or train from Kuala Lumpur. From Tapah, you can take a bus or taxi to Tanah Rata, Cameron Highlands' main town. A new route via Simpang Pulai has also been opened in recent years, allowing traffic from Gua Musang in Kelantan to flow via Cameron Highlands to Perak.
