Pahang: Riding to Colmar Tropicale...

"One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak..." - G.K. Chesterton

It is sunny and bright. So today we are going for a day-trip riding up the winding road to Colmar Tropicale and Genting Highlands. Unlike the road to Genting Highlands, the road to Colmar tropicale is practically deserted and heaven for bikers.

The Colmar Tropicale is a unique resort that sits 2,700 feet above sea-level. The hill resort is inspired by the 16th Century Colmar Village in Alsace, France, with beautiful architecture and historically-designed landmarks.

Total mileage: 162 km
Route taken: KL - Colemar Tropicale - Genting Highlands - KL (Via old Gombak road)

  2. Iamme,
    It is a nice unique place if you want to get away for a while. Have been there many times too with or without the kids. Even stayed there once and yes, the room rates and food are quite pricey.

    I remember first time going there a decade ago (they have not charged for entry then), the weather was cool esp at night. But now it was not any more...

  4. Linda,
    Luangkan lah masa bawa anak2 pergi jalan2. They will become close and will share travelling experience.

    Sekarang ni, kalau takde apa2 program, weekends kak mun dan abang mus akan pergi biking. Masih mencari tempat2 yg kami belum sampai lagi...
