Khao Phaeng Ma Reforestation Project to Honour His
Majesty the King is in the southern part of Nakhon Ratchasima. Take
Highway No. 304 (Nakhon Ratchasima-Kabin Buri) for 79 kilometres to the
market at Km. 79. Take a right on Ro Pho Cho Road (San Chao Pho-Nong
Khum) for 11 kilometres. The last part of about 4 kilometres is a dirt
road going uphill that is rugged but has good views. Upon reaching the
top, you will see some winding mountains. The peak is 850 metres above
sea level. The area is under the care of the Wildlife Foundation of
Thailand and has an area of 16 square kilometres. Activities include
reforestation, trekking, animal watching (particularly some remaining
gaurs), and slide shows for interested parties. There is accommodation
in the form of 3 bamboo lodges that can each accommodate 10-20 people.
