Located just a few hours from Phuket and Khao Lak, Khao Sok National Park is recognized as one of the most beautiful and biodiverse destinations in Thailand.

Whether you are a couple, family, or small group, this adventure is designed for travelers who want to connect with nature in an authentic and eco-friendly way.
Jungle Hiking in Khao Sok
Your adventure begins with a hotel pickup in Phuket or Khao Lak before traveling in an air-conditioned vehicle to Khao Sok National Park Ranger Station. After meeting your local English-speaking guide, you’ll be introduced to the day’s highlights and start your jungle trekking experience. The hike takes about three hours and follows a well-maintained trail through the rainforest.
During the trek, you will encounter lush vegetation, colorful butterflies, exotic flowers, and perhaps monkeys or small mammals. Guides share fascinating stories about the forest, including how local communities have used plants for food, medicine, and shelter throughout history. The hike is not too demanding, making it suitable for most travelers, while still offering an immersive experience into the heart of the rainforest.
One of the highlights of the hike is the stop at Bang Hua Rad Waterfall, where you can rest and enjoy the refreshing sound of water cascading into the jungle. This natural break is a perfect moment for photos, relaxation, and to appreciate the untouched beauty of Khao Sok National Park.
Lunch with a View
After completing the trek, you will enjoy a delicious Thai lunch at a restaurant set against the backdrop of Khao Sok’s limestone cliffs. The Cliff View Restaurant is known for its panoramic views and authentic southern Thai dishes, offering travelers a well-deserved break before continuing the adventure.
Bamboo Rafting on the Sok River
The afternoon highlights the unique charm of bamboo rafting in Khao Sok. Unlike speedboats or canoes, bamboo rafts provide a quiet, eco-friendly way to travel down the Sok River, one of the most picturesque waterways in Thailand. Your skilled paddler steers the raft while you sit back and relax, surrounded by towering cliffs, emerald jungle, and the soothing sounds of flowing water.
This part of the day allows you to slow down and take in the sights at a gentle pace. Bamboo rafting in Khao Sok National Park is also a great way to spot kingfishers, reptiles, and other wildlife that thrive along the riverbanks. For photographers and nature lovers, it is a highlight that captures the tranquil side of the rainforest.
Relaxation at Rommanee Hot Spring
To end the day, the trip includes a visit to Rommanee Hot Spring, where you can unwind after the trek and rafting. You may choose to dip your feet in the mineral-rich waters or enjoy a full-body soak. The natural hot spring is believed to have healing properties and is the perfect conclusion to a day of adventure and exploration.
