The Khao Sok National Park
4 km after Takua Pa the H401 (KM 145,5) branches off to the right in direction Surat Thani (156 km). At first the road leeds along the wide Takua Pa valley and then swings elegantly into the hills. On the other side of the hill pass at Km 107, there is a wonderful country side with overgrown lime stone rocks.
At Km 109.1 a road (2 Km) branches off to the left leading to the National Park Rain Forest, which is 646 M2. Many travelers like to stop here between the coasts for the night, because guest houses here are inexpensive, even romantic, and you have an ever-green monsoon forest on your door step. The park is not flooded with tourists. Only a few thousand guests visit each year. (admission 200 Baht, car 20 Baht)
