Visit Gaharu Tea Valley & Plantation Exploration

Nestled in the peaceful hills of Gopeng, Perak, Gaharu Tea Valley is home to one of Malaysia’s most unique organic agarwood plantations. Spanning approximately 300 acres of land with over 200,000 agarwood trees, the valley is more than just a scenic destination. It is a place where nature, wellness, culture, education, and meaningful experiences come together. At the heart of Gaharu Tea Valley is HOGA, our brand dedicated to sharing the beauty, value, and knowledge of agarwood with the world. HOGA was created with a mission to conserve agarwood trees, promote sustainable cultivation, and bring the full agarwood experience closer to people of all ages. Through our products, activities, guided experiences, and educational programs, we hope to inspire visitors to understand the importance of agarwood, appreciate nature, and enjoy memorable moments with family, friends, schools, and corporate groups.

What We Do

At HOGA, we believe agarwood is more than just a tree. It carries a rich history, natural wellness value, cultural significance, and environmental importance. Our work focuses on conserving agarwood trees through organic and sustainable practices, while helping visitors understand the journey of agarwood from tree to lifestyle. We aim to share the knowledge of agarwood, including its anatomy, growth process, traditional uses, and how it is used in tea, food, fragrance, wellness, and daily living. We also create nature-based experiences where visitors can explore the plantation, breathe in fresh air, learn about the environment, and reconnect with nature in a calm and meaningful way.
