KAENG KRACHAN NATIONAL PARK
A national park with diverse flora and fauna, offering every type of relief: mountains, valleys, caves...
This national park is the largest in the kingdom. The forest, nearly 1,000 years old, has an undeniable charm. It covers 2,915 km². The fauna and flora are very diverse. Stretching along the Burmese border, this territory offers all types of relief: mountains, valleys, forests, waterfalls, caves, lakes and rivers form a true wilderness sanctuary. In addition to the inevitable macaques, elephants, gibbons, flying squirrels, tapirs, Asiatic bears and, with great luck, tigers, which have found one of their final refuges here.
The entrance is by Sam Yot. A 6-hour hike (return) will take you to Thor Thip Falls, where you can enjoy beautiful panoramic views. The park offers a wide variety of landscapes for this purpose. We go from waterfalls to caves, from mountains (the Phanoeng Thung is 1,207 m high) to forests and lake. The Pa La-U Falls, located in the south of the park, are particularly popular.
Heavy rains water the park from June to October (beware of malaria), and a huge reservoir has been built to irrigate a large part of the peninsula throughout the year. Spend a good day there, with the program: walking, swimming and picnic in a beautiful environment, populated by butterflies (especially in the morning). Be careful to take good shoes, you're in the middle of nature, and it's wild! Provisions also need to be made
