Ask anyone who’s been on a satisfying forest hike—there’s something profoundly soothing about surrounding one’s self with greenery and getting close to nature. In Malaysia, we’re lucky to have access to some incredibly beautiful landscapes that range from ancient rainforests to hot springs buzzing with elusive flora and fauna. There’s also no shortage of charming retreats that offer you a luxurious resting place to enjoy all of nature’s goodness.
These dreamy nature escapes do have Internet access, though it can be unreliable due to their remote locations. So be prepared to unplug as you unwind in the arms of nature.
