Curtis Crest Treetop Walk

Curtis Crest Treetop Walk (4 February 2017)


B. Melayu

Curtis Crest Treetop Walk is the signature attraction at The Habitat Penang Hill. Completed in 2017, it is the highest viewing platform on Penang Island, with no other viewing platform higher than this. It is so tall that when you stand there, there's nothing above you but the clouds.

Curtis Crest was named in honour of the 19th century English botanist Charles Curtis (1853-1928), who was the first superintendent of the Kebun Bunga Pulau Pinang.

Located 12 meters from the ground, Curtis Crest has a total length of 100 meters and forms a semi-circular loop at about 820 meters above sea level, about a hundred meters higher than the Top Station, which is about 720 meters above sea level.

From this vantage point, visitors to The Habitat get a panoramic view of Penang Hill at their feet. On a clear day, you can see as far as Muka Head and the Andaman Sea.

For safety reasons, Curtis Crest has a maximum capacity at any one time. So you should consider visiting it on weekdays, when the visitor volume is lower, so you can get to stay up there longer.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
