Embarking on a hike along Trail 10 in Cameron Highlands is an exciting adventure leading to stunning views from Gunung Jasar, often connecting to the picturesque Cameron Valley Tea Plantation. However, finding the correct trailhead can sometimes be a challenge, with several misleading paths often mistaken as the start. This guide helps hikers avoid the "wrong entrance" and successfully begin their journey on this popular Tanah Rata jungle trail.
Understanding the Challenge:
Misleading Paths: Due to its location near Tanah Rata's evolving landscape (including past construction sites or overgrown areas), hikers sometimes mistakenly begin on unofficial or incorrect paths. These "wrong entrances" can lead to confusion, dense bush, or trails that dead-end, wasting valuable hiking time and effort.
Unclear Signage: While Trail 10 generally has a marked start, secondary paths or initial difficult sections might not be as clearly signed.
Overgrowth: Some sections, especially if less frequented, might appear overgrown, making it difficult to discern the correct route from an incorrect one.
How to Find the Correct Entrance to Trail 10:
Official Trailhead: The correct starting point for Trail 10 has a clear sign labelled "10" at the very beginning of the jungle path.
Local Advice: When in doubt, ask locals or your accommodation hosts in Tanah Rata for the precise current starting location
Parking: You can park the car at Jalan Carnation near Carnation Court
