Khao Phra Thaeo Non-Hunting Area

Unclaimed

Unclear signalling for the hiking trail. Couldn’t finish it unfortunately. Otherwise adventurous place.

Overall I enjoyed the hike. Signs might be unclear in between each Kilometer but for every Kilometer there is a clear sign. Not much wildlife when I went at 8am. There were locals trimming and clearing overgrowth during my descend.

Oh my god! Taking a 4-year-old through the entire route felt like stepping into a real-life maze adventure! My tracker showed a whopping 8 km, with endless crossroads that felt like hidden levels in a video game. I highly recommend starting in the morning—if you get lost in the afternoon, you’ll end up stuck in an infinite loop, wandering in circles and questioning your life choices! 。

Beginner to intermediate level trail with lots of different types of terrain to navigate. You can easily get off the actual trail if don’t pay close attention to the sometimes difficult to see markers and signs. Overall, a good experience that takes just over an hour or so of actual moving time with a few pictures along the way. ????

The second largest national park in Phuket, after Sirinat National Park, is located in the northeast of the island and is adjacent to it. There is beautiful nature here, which includes a large number of different trees and shrubs, the fauna of which represent rare rain forests in the world. This is a good place for lovers of wildlife, animals and those who love long walks among the wild jungle. There are two waterfalls, the distance between which is up to 8 km along a forest path (depending on the chosen route). One of them is Ton Sai - is located in the western part of the park, the other - Bang Pae - is located in the eastern part. Also on the territory of the park, at the Ban Pae waterfall, there is a gibbon rehabilitation center, where you can get acquainted with these beautiful animals! This is a non-contact zoo - the animals here are in cages. Entrance fee: about 500 baht/hour Full information with video and easy navigation - in the app ? PHUKETON
