The main gateway to the town is via the North-South Expressway from Kuala Lumpur to the Thai border. From Kuala Lumpur, head northwards towards Ipoh. Kuala Kangsar is just approximately 30km to the north of Ipoh. The old Federal Route One is an alternative for those who want a leisurely drive to Kuala Kangsar.
By train
Keretapi Tanah Melayu operates daily services from Kuala Lumpur and Penang (Butterworth).
Get around
