(Pack SS1) 3 nights at the Village: Discovery off piste

Day 1
2:00 pm – Educational trek on the main trail of Khao Sok National Park
This trail may not be the wildest, but it’s a perfect introduction to the Khao Sok jungle, with the chance to take a refreshing swim in the Sok River.
Overnight in a Cozy Jungalow at Monkey Mansion.


Day 2
8:30 am – Trek to Keow Cave, Khlong Phanom National Park
Located about 10 km from the resort, this trek is moderately challenging, leading to Keow Cave whose entrance lies along a cliffside. The effort is well worth it: the cave is impressively large and filled with fascinating stalagmites and stalactites of all kinds.

Return to the resort for lunch (not included).
3:00 pm – Elephant Park
Meet a gentle elderly elephant, feed her her favorite treats, and walk alongside her. Afterwards, enjoy preparing and tasting local pastries by the river—while the elephant, curious as ever, keeps a close eye on the sweets!

5:00 pm – Bamboo cooking & night walk
Experience traditional jungle cooking as your guide and his assistant prepare dinner over a fire, using bamboo as pots and dishes. After the meal, set out on a short night walk to discover the forest’s nocturnal life—mainly insects and spiders.
Overnight in a Cozy Jungalow at Monkey Mansion.


Day 3
8:30 am – Jungle trek & Chiew Larn Lake
We drive 10 km from the resort to a secondary entrance of Khao Sok National Park. From there, a 7 km trek (with about 300 m of elevation gain and several river crossings) leads through pristine jungle to a remote and breathtaking part of Chiew Larn Lake. A long-tail boat will be waiting to take you to a floating bamboo restaurant. After lunch, enjoy free time swimming in this magnificent setting.

In the afternoon, board the boat again and cross the lake from west to east, before returning to Khao Sok by minivan (approx. 1h15 drive).
Overnight in a Cozy Jungalow at Monkey Mansion.

Return to the resort for lunch (not included) at around
12:00 pm.
