For the best natural wood hiking sticks, go to these Orang Asli stalls in Perak

Pay close attention to tops of the sticks and staves because many of them offer a touch of natural beauty while being the top end of a hiking stick that you can comfortably grip. — Photos: ARNOLD LOH/The Star

IF you fancy hiking sticks that are natural wood, visit the Orang Asli on either side of the Sungai Perak rest area along the North-South Expressway.

The north and south-bound rest areas are hard beside Sungai Perak and on both rest areas, off to a corner, are booths run by Orang Asli of the Temiar tribe offering a number of products found in the jungles near Kuala Kangsar, Perak.
