There is time to take a swim near one of the waterfalls. Based in Pak Chong, just outside Khao Yai National Park. (3 days, 2 nights)
Day 1.
In the morning you arrive at your hotel in Pak Chong, at the foot of Khao Yai National Park. The tour that we have set
out is easy and can be done by nature-lovers of all ages. Transfers during this tour are partly by car and partly by
foot. In the afternoon you will visit the volcanic caves with beautiful limestone stalagmites and stalactites. Later
visit the batcaves, where at sunset millions of bats are swarming out to hunt for nightly food. Falcons try to seize the
bats as food, an experience not to be missed. In the evening you can optionally visit the friendly night market at Pak
Chong. Overnight stay at the
Khao Yai Garden Lodge,
a spaciously set up and picturesque nature resort that fits perfectly in the natural landscape of Khao Yai National
Park. The hotel has a large collection of orchids, turtles, butterflies and plants, a swimming pool and a cozy
restaurant.
Day 2.
Today you'll drive deep into the mountains. Walk through refreshing morning nature and scenic landscapes of bizarre
mountains where untouched jungle still exists. Follow elephant trails along mountain streams and see magnificent
waterfalls where you can take a swim, so take your swimming gear with you. Admire the large variety of orchids and the
magnificent views from the cliff at 1270m altitude. The experience of being in the jungle with its many sounds is
already unique. The park has an extensive fauna, among which Thailands largest population of elephants (200), many
kinds of deer, cats, gibbons, wild bears and birds among which the hornbill. Stops will be made at interesting places.
