Location & what to see
Khao Sok sits in the hills of Surat Thani province in southern Thailand, a rural area of limestone peaks and rainforest. The village is set among the trees, and the appeal here is the forest around it rather than the beach. The River khaosok lies near the village centre, so its surroundings are green and hilly rather than urban. Days here are naturally spent outdoors, with the forest, the waterfalls and the limestone peaks as the main attractions.
Khao Sok National Park is the main draw, and the forest around it has waterfalls and viewpoints. Wing Hin waterfall is 1.9 km away, and Wat Tham Panthurat, a Buddhist temple in the area, is 1.2 km away. The Elephant Sanctuary is 2.1 km away, and it gives visitors a chance to see elephants up close.
A good day could start with the national park's trails, continue to Wing Hin waterfall, and end with a visit to the Elephant Sanctuary. Khao Sok Foresta Camping, 2.3 km away, lets guests spend the night close to the forest. Surat Thani Airport is 72.2 km away, and an airport transfer is offered, so the journey from the airport can be planned before the first night.
