Cameron Highlands Getting there & around

Getting around

Bus & tram

Bus

Regal Transport operates the Tapah–Tanah Rata route and as well as local buses in the Highlands. Getting between Tanah Rata and Brinchang is not a problem between 6.30am and 6.30pm, as buses run every hour or so. There are scheduled buses every hour from Tanah Rata to Kampung Raja, 23km away across the Highlands, but it’s more like two or three hours until the next one happens by. It’s quite a scenic trip, and you can hop off at various fruit and vegetable farms along the way. These buses also pass the turn-off to Gunung Brinchang and the Sungai Palas Tea Estate.
