Activities that provide a reasonable level of physical challenge and elevate the heart rate. Focused on more active pursuits including multisport tours. Travelers may be active 5-7 hours total each day. Recommended for travelers with active lifestyles.
You are picked up at a Phuket hotel or the airport and drive three hours north to Khao Sok National Park. Unload gear at Ratchaprapa Dam and get your first glimpse over the open water of the tall mountains of Khao Sok. From here, access Chiew Lan Lake by taking a long-tail boat towards the park. Travel past gigantic limestone mountains as you make your way deeper into the park towards the secluded raft house. Arrive and settle in for a swim or some relaxation before lunch.
This afternoon head out on a guided hike to Khao Sok's highest viewpoint! Once back at the raft house the day is yours to hop aboard the kayaks and paddle around the canals close, swim in the cool waters, or just relax. Listen for gibbons calling each other between the islands and look up to spot osprey and other birds.
Rise early to the sounds of the jungle and set out for a morning paddle. Mammals and other large animals are more active at dawn and if you are lucky you may spot gaur, elephant, or even wild tigers coming near the water for a morning drink. Return to the station for breakfast and set out on a long-tail boat ride around the lake to a trekking trail. Hop on land and start a hike through the lush jungle. The final stretch of the trail is steep and needs to be climbed, but you are well rewarded at the top with a magnificent view of the lake and surrounding park. Arrive back to the ranger station in time for dinner and storytelling about what was seen during the kayak. Overnight in floating huts tonight.
Hiking time: 2 hours
