Hiking in Khao Lak
Hiking opportunities abound in Khaolak/Laem Ru National
Park and nearby in Sri
Phang Nga National
Park and Thai Muang
National Park.
One of the many national parks in the province of Phang-Nga,
Khaolak/Laem Ru covers
a total area of 125sqm along the west shoreline. It includes
parts of Thai Muang, Kapong, Takua Pa, and Phang-Nga Town
districts, about 33 kms south of Takua Pa Town on Route
4.
The park offers a myriad of sightseeing opportunities for
nature lovers, harbouring lots of exotic plants and wildlife
amidst landscape that includes beaches, hills, mountains,
forested valleys, mangroves and estuaries.
One of the park's many points of interest is Kao Lak mountain,
situated beside the sea with a Chinese temple dedicated
to the wizard of the mountain. The temple lies close to
Thai Muang district.
Thailand is all about elephants, and a holiday here wouldnt
be complete with taking a lumbering
trek through the jungle atop a massive, plodding pachyderm.
Feeling really adventurous? African safari-style camps
have come to the tropical forest welcome to Elephant
Hills. Or enjoy the untamed wilds of Khao
Sok National Park. Raft,
camp, and hike in this perfect wonderland.
