You can either travel by car or by public transport to Cameron Highlands. If you are going to travel up there by car, you will have to take the North-South Expressway. From there, you may use the Tapah toll exit. Tapah toll exit is the main entry point to Cameron highland. From here, you will have to go through a long and meandering road, about 60 km up to the hill resort. It takes about 1 ½ hours. You will need to have enough rest and alertness when you are driving up to Cameron highlands. This is because there are numerous sharp turns and narrow bends along the way. But overall, it is a rather safe drive. If you are a first timer, no worries. There are plenty of signboards along the way. So even if you generally have no sense of direction, you will still find it difficult to get lost. If you use this way, you will pass by the Lata Kinjang waterfall. Peaceful and refreshing, the flowing sounds of the mountain streams will immediately relax you. You will be able to enjoy the mesmerizing view below the large stones. Besides that, there are many stalls selling a variety kind of stuff, from foods to souvenirs. 

           Besides the Tapah toll exit, there is a new way to get to Cameron highlands and that is the Simpang Pulai-Kampung Raja Highway. This new highway is a godsend for those who prefer a less-dizzying drive. This road is carved through solid granite mountains. It is linked up further to the east with Gua Musang in Kelantan. Therefore, if you are coming from Kuala Lumpur, you may skip the Tapah toll exit and look out for the Simpang Pulai exit. It is about 25 km ahead. After the toll, turn right at the first traffic light and after another 500 m, you will have to turn to right again at the traffic lights. When you reach the Blue Valley junction, about 55 km from Simpang Pulai, take a right turn and you will get to Kampung Raja. From there, there is only one way and it will lead you to Brinchang then to Tanah Rata. It takes about 75 km from the Simpang Pulai toll to reach Brinchang.
