Fraser's Hill, Hill station in Pahang, Malaysia

Fraser's Hill extends across seven hills at 1,500 meters elevation, featuring rain forests and Tudor-style buildings near the Pahang-Selangor border.

Scottish prospector Louis James Fraser established a tin mining operation in 1890 before disappearing mysteriously, leading to the area's development as a hill station.

The annual Fraser's Hill Bird Race, initiated in 1988, brings together nature observers to document the 270 bird species inhabiting the mountain forests.

The temperature ranges from 22 to 28 degrees Celsius during daytime and 16 to 20 degrees at night, making April through September the most suitable months.

The location contains eight marked hiking paths, including the Bishop's Trail and Pine Tree Trail, spanning through dense mountain forests with lengths up to eight hours.
