Tracks 9 & 9a, Bho Tea Plantation
***Easy, 2h30, easy to find and follow the track.
After 10min you reach the Robinson Waterfalls that are nice but not that special, then there is the turn to catch 9a on the left. The walk through the jungle was pleasant but tricky as we had to go through the branches of trees that had fallen across the track. The tracks ends in a farm, we found ourselves walking through an asparagus plantation! Then we turned left onto the road going to Boh Plantation, a very nice road. We saw lots of vegetables farms along the way and the landscapes were very nice when arriving to the tea plantation.The plantation itself was nice but not as nice as the Sungai Palas plantation. To get back to Tanah Rata we got a lift on a motorcycle...that was a bit squeezy for three people but we really enjoyed the ride, especially that we were very tired of walking. The guy dropped us on the main road from which we could have caught any local bus coming from the coast but we got a cab for RM5 each to get back to Tanah Rata.
