Kaeng Krachan National Park in Hua Hin

Kaeng Krachan National Park is the largest national park in Thailand. It is located in the central Thailand southwest of Bangkok in the province of Phetchaburi, near the resorts of Hua Hin, Cha-am, the city of Phetchaburi. The park is adjacent to the border of Thailand and Myanmar (Burma).

This is a huge forest area with mountains, caves, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, a hot spring and, of course, unique tropical flora and fauna. There are more than 400 species of birds and 57 species of animals.

Access to the park is paid, 200 baht (6.15 USD, see Thailand's currency and exchange rate) for foreigners, plus 30 baht for transport. There is also a fee of 30 baht per night if you decide to spend the night in the park.

The easiest way to visit the park as part of an excursion with an experienced guide from Hua Hin or Cha-am, it is cheaper to find an excursion in Kaeng Krachan. However, you can visit the park on your own by rented transport, especially since there are even hotels and camping camps here. It is impossible to get to the park by public transport, only rented or sightseeing transport. There are two roads leading to the park: Road 3219 from Hua Hin to Palau Falls (Pala-U); road 3432 between Hua Hin and the city Phetchaburi. On both of these routes there is a checkpoint where a fee is charged. The most interesting route is along the 3432 road.
