From Vienna with love

We had seen many European cyclist passing by Pos Betau on their way to Cameron Highlands in Pahang. Most of them traveled in groups of 2-6. Many stopped by the village before taking the uphill 55km ride to Cameron Highlands. Barbara from Vienna, Austria was one of them. And she cycles ALONE! 

She sets off from Vienna 3 years ago to cycle around the globe, landing in Johor Bahru from Singapore via Indonesia and Australia. She stopped by at the basecamp, seeking only shelter for the night before her scenic ascend the next day to Cameron Highlands - and on her way to Thailand next. 

Ecolife Basecamp is the ONLY place between Pos Betau and Cameron Highlands where one can get proper shelter in a gated compound, complete with running water, electricity, clean washrooms, and a beautiful river to submerge yourself with. We wish her the best. Have a safe journey, Barbara! Do drop by anytime soon!
