Jalan Bukit Fraser 1 or Jalan Gap-Bukit Fraser, Federal Route is a federal road to Fraser's Hill, Pahang, Malaysia. Unlike most federal roads in Malaysia, Jalan Bukit Fraser is a single-lane federal road, which direction was used to be reversible hourly before the newer Jalan Bukit Fraser 2 route was completed in 2001 for downhill traffic. Now the road is used for uphill traffic at all times. The road is only open during daytime for safety reasons.
