Khao Phang Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Cheow lan dam in Thailand

It's located 2-hours drive north of Phuket, Khao Sok is a breathtaking national park that offers a wide range of activities, from jungle trekking to canoeing and boat riding on the stunning Cheow Lan Lake. Some people say that Cheow Lan lake (dam) is the last pristine gem of Thailand... true or not, what we can tell you is that this experience was one of the most beautiful we've had around the world, of those that you will think about it forever. Remember that time you slept in a tiny floating hut surrounded by huge limestone rocks emerging from the water, hundreds of meters high and completely covered by the rain forest. No internet, no phone, just nature, the perfect place to make peace with yourself. #bangkoktrip

Paradise

Located in the Khao Sok National park, an overnight trip to the Cheow Lan Lake is a must. Surrounded by limestone cliffs and lush tropical vegetation, the sounds and sights of the jungle are fascinating . We saw monkeys and a herd of elephants had been spotted a few days earlier….. the tracks they left in the mud were still visible 🐾 There are choices of several accommodations on the lake, ranging from very basic to high end, so do your research , as the difference in comfort is huge. The cost of the tour was 2600 baht pp, from Khao Sok village ( approx €72) and included basic accommodation, lunch, dinner and breakfast, pick up/ drop off, guided jungle hike, cave exploration, morning sunrise safari , free use of kayaks and life jackets ( national park fees not included in this price) #2023travelwish #nationalpark #wintergetaway #getawayfromcitylife #heavenonearth #paradise #thailand

Suspension Bridge

Suspension of Khao Thep Phitak Bridge is another famous tourist destination in Surat Thani province. Located behind Wat Khao Phang close to the entrance of Ratchaprapha Dam (Chiao Lan Dam). The bridge uses a large wire rope stretched to a concrete pole. The floor is covered with wooden planks on a steel frame. It is surrounded with natural scenery which is beautiful. Behind the bridge is a heart-shaped mountain. If taking pictures in the middle of the bridge will get the most beautiful heart shape, that’s why this bridge became famous tourist attraction in this province. #passionpassport #touristattractions #bridge #mountainview #urbanexplorer #

Spectacular Cheow Lan

The gorgeous Cheow Larn Lake, located in the middle of Khao Sok National Park, is one of Thailand's most picturesque sites. It's a wonderful spot to visit, surrounded by jungle-clad mountains and with vertiginous limestone karsts and submerged trees breaking the surface of the water. Rare species like the gigantic parasitic Rafflesia flower, hornbill birds, gibbons, and tigers call it home. Elephant-back safaris, hiking trails, and rafting, canoeing, and kayaking on the Sok River are all options for exploring the park. #scenicspotphotoguide#choicehomestay#hiking#nationalpark#naturalwonders#summervacation#beachvacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Khao Sok Thailand

#2023travelwish One of this year's unforgettable travel experience has been visiting Khao Sok National Park, which is less crowded at this time of year. Looking forward to visiting a location that reconnects us with nature 😊 to get here the nearest airport is Surathani Airport. Grab is accessible also in this place #khaosokthailand #suratthani

You will undoubtedly see stunning limestone cliffs, a vivid lake, and the opportunity to experience wildlife at Khao Sok, which is one of the most picturesque places Thailand has to offer. This area is home to a variety of wild animals. Our lodging appears to be surrounded by a chilly forest, and the sound of insects at night is a lovely experience. There is no need for an air conditioner because the weather is cold while you are in the heart of a forest or surrounded by trees. 😄😊#tripblazers #amazingthailand. #amazingthailand🇹🇭

VILLAGE FULL OF SOLACE 🏕️

Khao Sok has always been a special place in my heart. It’s peace is addicting and the tranquility is one of a kind that you want to come back for more. Experience nature at its best while you pamper from the stress of life. Visit Khao Sok and be fulfilled. #tripblazers #campingglamping #nationalpark

#HotSummerWhereToGo 𝙋𝙖𝙣𝙫𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙤𝙧𝙩 Phraimnam Dam with the most stunning view in Surat Thani Province I must say that the view here is extremely beautiful. Apart from being surrounded by natural limestone cliffs, the front view is also the most beautiful dam view. You can see far away with your own eyes. And I have to say that seeing this is not expensive at all. What's important is that the accommodation also participates in our travel project together. Which in the package includes everything, whether it is ✅ Boat transfer ✅ 3 meals ✅ Long-tail boat tour to see the beauty of Thai canals ✅ Morning safari to see the mist and wildlife ✅ Kayaking, floating chair ✅ National park fee for Thai people ✅ Air-conditioned rooms with private bathrooms ✅ AIS signal and FREE WIFI in the LOBBY area I have to say that it's really worth it. Especially during this time when the weather is good, anyone who plans to travel and relax I highly recommend it.
