Trek onward to Kilometer 33, known as Nong Park Chi to the locals. Walk for around 2.5 hours, passing an observation tower and many different species of wildlife. There is a salt lick close to the tower to attract wildlife, along with a lake, open grassland, and forest.
Enjoy a single dish a la carte of your choice (Thai lunch dish) including drinking water at a local restaurant. Then, visit the Khao Yai National Park and enhance your appreciation of the park.
Along the way, stop at picturesque spots like Sai Sorn Reservoir for scenic photos and Lam Takhong Campsite, where you can capture deer and butterflies in their natural beauty.
Finally, stop at the splendid Haew Suwat Waterfall, with plenty of shady tree spots to sit under and many large rocks to lie down on and relax. This stunning waterfall was made famous in The Beach movie but is unfortunately off-limits to swim in.
After your full day of hiking in the forest, transfer back to MBK Center at 6:30 PM or get dropped off at your hotel if you booked the private tour.
