Khao Yai National Park

Many trails and interesting fauna and flora. Unfortunately we did not encounter the elephants. Worth a visit given its proximity to Bangkok.

It's an amazing park! It's so good that I'm shocked more people doesn't visit it, especially that it's relatively close to Bangkok. If you're on the fence whether to include this in your trip itinerary I'd say go for it. It's really worth it. I recommend tours with Greenleaf (they are budget friendly) which I personally arranged with More than Sleep hostel

Khao Yai National Park is worth to visit for the people who love nature and green scenery. Khao Yai is known as world heritage site because of its significant landscape and great and unique biodiversity. And also this national site is very first national park in Thailand with rich natural resources and unique wildlife. So that there is no doubt that there is best option for mammals watching.
Transportation is easy is easy to get there by bus, train and or private van.From the Bangkok (mo chit bus station), it takes almost 4 hours to get to the Khao Yai. The entrance fee of this park is 400 Bhat that is worth to spend it.At there, you can do camping,trekking, hiking and explore the nature.The one thing we must to do it, before you want to do trekking or hiking, you should report information Center. At there, the officers assist you the types of trails and do and don’t things. And also that they will give the map and experienced tour guides guide if you want.
The best season is winter with fresh and cool air.I recommend that if you want to spend your quality time with your loved ones, Khoa Yai national park is the must.if you want escaping from the city life, exploring the countryside( wildlife and waterfall)with fresh breeze, this national park is the best place to experience of full set of nature.
One more thing is the food. The food is not expensive as much that is between 50 to 100 bhat. You can try Thai style curry and fresh juices.One of the best food for me is fried potatoes that is very unique and delicious.
The last thing is the opening hour (6:00am to 6:00 pm) in everyday. But weekend can be busy with visitors so the weekdays is the must.

A brisk 2 hour drive from Bangkok takes you to the entrance of Khao Yai National Park. There are some amazing waterfalls, hikes and wildlife. It's hard to believe it's so close to Bangkok! And you might even have a true wild elephant walk out on the road to have some roadside snacks! That's certainly a traffic stopper!!!

Great day out organised by our host at Saengcha Farm Resort. A hired mini bus drove us to the park where we were able to go on two treks through the jungle trails, one took about an hour, the other over one and a half hours. We saw a monitor lizard basking on rocks in the river and numerous monkeys (hold on to your phones and bags, they are theives!). Drove and walked to different viewpoints and waterfalls. On the way back we saw an elephant with her calf. There's an information centre, shop cafés and plenty of toilets.

Khao Yai National Park is an expansive beauty spread of nature. It is massive and offers everything one needs from nature: fresh air, greenery, wildlife, silence and sounds of nature, waterfalls and opportunities for careful observation and reflection. Recommend going with a driver and or guide who can help point out all of the hidden sights and treasures. Worth spending at least a day taking it all in.

Just a paradise on earth, you would never imagine how easily you can get lost in so much nature. I would advise to try the bicycle track but you will need to have the legs for it.

Brilliant national park to see a huge range of animals. We went with GreenLeaf guesthouse, the guide Ghaan was amazing and spotted a great variety of animals

It’s so greenery if you visit Khao Yai in rainy season. I really love this place as it’s naturally and surround by wild animals. Good to see the sign not allow to feed food to animals, as I don’t want to see it change animal’s behavior and instinct. Recommend to visit water falls, do natural route walking and visit the cliffs for the view.

Khao Yai National Park is truly a must visit when you travel to PakChong, Khao Yai. Although it was lightly raining during our visit, we did not find it disturbing our exploration at all. It on the other hand made us feel more enjoyable.

Thailand's oldest and 3rd largest National Park. Fabulous views, wildlife, hiking trails, activities, lodging and photo ops. Great for birding, bugging, camping or "glamping".

You definitely get the feeling your in the jungle. Its not advisable to trek off path unless you’re carry protection besides the wild animals you might encounter indigenous people. One of the best parks in Thailand.

Truly gorgeous park. Must visit no matter if you want to spend the entire day hiking or just ride through it- although I highlt recommend making at least a few stops to take in the amazing wilderness. Was not lucky enough to spot any elephants during my visit

Khao Yai is a place that is rich in plants and animals. We can still meet animals very easily. The atmosphere is good, not too hot and not too cold, suitable for camping because you can see the atmosphere in In the morning, which is beautiful and worth exploring. There is also Khao Yai National Park where you can drive to see plants and wildlife.

If you want to see a lot of animals, it really has to be after 5:00 p.m., or even earlier. Because it will be the time to find food or return to the nest of animals.
Secretly telling me the location, Hornbill in a wide yard with a big mango tree. one side of the road On the other side is a reservoir. Can you imagine it?
In the evening, hornbills will fly by. There, I've seen both cackles and sedges. Personally, I really like hornbills. I will go here regularly.

Huge park which seems to be the oldest one of Thailand
Beautiful
You need 2-3 days to visit it completely

Great few days spent here. Highly recommended getting a local safari guide. If your hoping to see waterfalls just know that there is no water in April. We didn't see elephants but we saw gibbons, porcupines, mongoose, jackles, Hornbills, snakes, water monitors

It was amazing! We walk for 2 hours around the park and were able to capture wild animals. There's a restaurant and coffee shop in the park. You are allowed to bring your car.

Completely worth it! Lots of wildlife if you are lucky.

Today I will be reviewing my trip to Khao Yai on New Year's Day. I went to Khao Yai and set up a tent. Got to see animals and cook food. The tent area in the park is very natural. There are deer, porcupines, and monkeys walking around in the center of the tent. The weather there is very nice. I really like Khao Yai National Park. If I have the opportunity to go again, I will definitely go back.
