Kaeng
Krachan-Pala
U-Trekking
Tour
The
Keang
Krachan
National
Park
is
the
biggest
National
Park
of
Thailand.
We
visit
a
part
of
it,
situated
in
the
south,
which
can
be
reached
50
km
west
of
Hua
Hin.
After
a
short
drive
of
about
30
km
we
turn
into
a
road,
which
leads
us
into
a
mango
plantation.
At
this
plantation
4000
trees
are
harvested.
A
narrow
hardly
passable
road
s
being
marked
with
bamboo
Sticks.
We
see
at
the
end
of
the
road
a
marking
which
shows
us
a
path
leading
up
to
an
unknown
cave.
The
climb
is
hard.
For
a
walk
of
800
meter
we
need
about
one
hour.
The
path
takes
us
sometimes
almost
vertically
upwards.
As
the
path
is
overgrown
with
shrubs
its
no
problem
to
climb
it
with
sport
shoes.
At
the
entrance
of
the
cave
we
have
a
wonderful
view
over
the
valley
covered
in
mango-
trees.
In
the
cave
we
can
see
a
lot
of
bats
and
the
sleeping
place
of
a
tiger.
When
the
cave
was
discovered
not
so
long
time
ago,
there
was
discovered
a
place
with
human
bones
too.
But
the
discoverers
have
handed
the
rest
of
the
bones
over
to
the
fire
because
of
religious
reasons.
The
pottery
which
was
discovered
also
were
brought
to
a
museum
in
Bangkok.
After
visiting
the
cave
we
go
through
the
mango
plantation
and
we
turn
to
the
west.
We
visit
a
holy
place,
which
accommodates
the
mummy
of
a
monk.
This
sacred
man
was
buried
in
a
coffin
of
glass.
The
mummify
process
developed
by
its
own.
This
monk
was
well
known
as
a
wonder
healer
and
as
a
mummy
he
should
have
healed
people
as
well.
Further
it
goes
to
a
region,
where
70
wild
elephants
are.
We
have
a
look
at
the
elephant
museum.
After
a
short
trip
of
another
20
minutes
we
reach
a
wild
stream.
We
have
to
leave
the
bus
behind
now.
We
walk
along
a
jungle
path.
After
about
30
minutes
we
see
a
waterfall.
The
clear
spring
water,
which
is
coming
from
Burma
falls
into
a
natural
pool.
In
the
cold
water
of
about
20
degrees
C
we
can
take
a
bath.
On
the
way
back
to
Hua
Hin
we
stop
at
a
small
restaurant,
where
we
have
dinner
tour.
At
about
4.00
pm
we
are
back
at
your
hotel.
Includes:
all
entries,
dinner
and
soft
drink
in
the
car.
