The Khlong Lan National Park |
|
|
|
covers an area of some 300 square
kilometres over mountain ranges to the west of the province.
The highest peak is about 1,400 metres. Of mainly virgin
jungles, it is the source of several streams which flow
into the Ping River.
The park headquarters
is near the Khlong Lan waterfall about 60 kilometres from
the town on the route to Khlong Lan district (highway no.
1117). Attractions within the park include the 95-metre
high Khlong Lan Fall with scenic surroundings, and the Khlong
Nam Lai Fall, a 9-level cascade and located off Highway
no. 1117 at Km. 35 and 10 kilometres further on. The Kaeng
Ko Roi (off highway No. 1117 at Pong Nam Ron intersection)
is a group of rock formations jutting out of the stream
looking somewhat like all islands. Visitors can camp overnight
within the park.
