Gunung Jasar
A small hill behind Tanah Rata; about 1.5 hours up Trail 10 to the summit for views of the town and tea gardens.
At about 1,696 metres, Gunung Jasar is reached via Trail 10 from Tanah Rata (starting at Carnation Park). The round trip takes about 2–3 hours and is the town's most popular short hike. The route passes through rainforest and mossy forest, and from the summit you can look down over Tanah Rata and the distant hills. The trail is slippery and full of tree roots, so wear non-slip shoes and bring a raincoat. Under local forestry regulations, some trails require registration or a guide, so check with the town's tourist information office before setting out to confirm current access.
