Another thing to consider is that Genting Highlands is a popular tourist destination, so it\u2019s best to avoid weekends and public holidays when the crowds are larger and prices are higher.<\/p>\n<h2>Getting there<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><b>By bus:<\/b> Regular bus services are available from Kuala Lumpur at ticket prices between MYR 5-12, depending on the boarding location. Genting Express is the official bus service to Awana SkyCentral, dropping you off either directly to Mushroom Farm Terminal (summit) or Awana SkyCentral (Gohtong Jaya).<\/li>\n<li><b>By car:<\/b> Drive takes about an hour from the base to the peak, covering a distance of 35 km. The seemingly slow drive is due to the windy and steep mountain road that starts from the base of Genting Highlands. There is ample parking available at the destination.<\/li>\n<li><b>By cable car:<\/b> The Genting cable car is an aerial gondola lift system that takes visitors to the summit in 10 minutes (depending on the weather) and each gondola can accommodate 10 passengers. Rides occur daily from 7AM &#8211; 12 AM from Awana Skycentral Complex.<\/li>\n<li><b>By train:<\/b> The nearest train station is the Gohtong Jaya Station, from where you can take a taxi or shuttle service to the resort.<\/li>\n<li><b>By taxi:<\/b> Taxis are regularly available from major cities (like Kuala Lumpur and Singapore) to Genting Highlands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Restaurants nearby<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/media\/images\/0a8329912c7108b09ebe54da16dd928d-AdobeStock_632852655.jpeg?fm=pjpg&amp;auto=compress&amp;w=400&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" data-sizes=\"auto\" alt=\"Ethiopian dish Injera\" sizes=\"150px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/media\/images\/0a8329912c7108b09ebe54da16dd928d-AdobeStock_632852655.jpeg?fm=pjpg&amp;auto=compress&amp;w=400&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"318551585\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"> <span><\/span> <span><strong>Ambasha Restaurant<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Craving authentic Ethiopian cuisine?

grown up in the urban city of Bengaluru, my travels were limited to weekend getaways to nearby temple towns with the promise of a good drive and a sumptuous meal. When not this, books were my haven and through them, I travelled to places far, wide, and beyond. Until 2021! In 2021, a solo trip to Leh helped me discover a purpose to my travels - being one with nature. Somewhere between catching a surreal sunrise from the flight window to being mesmerised by a million twinkling stars in an inky black sky, I discovered the transformative power of travel. And what better way to help share these travel stories than through words, sprinkled with snippets of my own travel experiences. As a travel writer, I write about travel guides, seasonal travels, nature escapades, history &amp; culture, and handy tips to make your travel a lot more comfortable and familiar. Presently on my travel bucket list are a Himalayan road trip and a visit to Otterberg, Germany! Until then, I\u2019ll continue my travels through literature, storytelling, movies, and conversations.","url":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/author\/jyothsna\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151507"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/172"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=151507"}],"version-history":[{"count":33,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151507\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":187170,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151507\/revisions\/187170"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/153773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=151507"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=151507"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=151507"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
