Another great thing about the Genting Highlands is that although the center is very commercialized, you can easily go trekking in the surrounding area and even hike to nearby waterfalls and mountains. There is also a massive cable car system which has put the Genting Highlands on the map, or you can try whizzing through the rainforest on a Flying Fox. One of the reasons why people flock here is to take in the crisp mountain air, but another big reason to visit is to enjoy the attractions such as several casinos and both indoor and outdoor theme parks. The Genting Highlands is known for being one of Malaysia’s hill stations, which puts it in the category of other spots like the Cameron Highlands. The Genting Highlands is only 45 minutes away from the capital city of Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia and is one of the most popular vacation spots in the country.
