Khao Sok National Park Trips & Tours

Jurassic scenery, hardy trekking and the chance to spot wildlife in the planet’s oldest rainforest.

Utter the words ‘Andaman Coastline’ and postcard-perfect beaches and aqua seas probably spring to mind. You wouldn’t be wrong – but venture inland and you might change your mind. Here, you’ll find Khao Sok National Park, home to sights so magical, you won’t forget them in a hurry. We’re talking iconic karsts, swirled in mist and topped by wild jungle, glorious fig trees, banana plants and thick bamboo groves, waterfalls and swirling pools, and pretty Cheow Lan Lake. The ancient rainforest is believed to be one of the oldest on the planet – estimates put it at a staggering 160 million years – and it was dedicated a national park in 1980. Today, most visit to marvel at the scenery, trek to the falls, and spot some of Thailand’s wild things. It’s one of the only places to see larger fauna including bears, boars and wild elephants, but sightings are still rare. Instead, look to the trees and enjoy the vibrant birdlife – or just keep gazing at the landscape…

What to do in Khao Sok National Park

In Khao Sok National Park, adventure comes in as many forms as you can think of. The setting alone is astounding with limestone karsts erupt from turquoise channels and waterfalls that cascade amongst the trees of one of the oldest rainforests on Earth. Take to the water of Cheow Lan Lake or its winding tributaries on a canoe or tranquil longtail boat ride as incredible birdlife flutters around, or explore the jungle on foot and keep your eyes peeled for Malayan sun bear and wild elephant. You could even spend a few hours at a sanctuary for these gentle giants.
