Thailand is rich with opportunities to enjoy nature at her breathtaking best.

Famous for its beaches, the coastline also boasts some of the world’s most spectacular marine national parks. Inland, the natural beauty is no less spectacular.

Flower fields, mountains, forests, jungles, rivers and waterfalls are all surprisingly accessible, even in the remote hill country of the north. In Chiang Rai, teak forests, jungle-covered peaks and secret valleys are still home to semi-nomadic and independent hill tribes.

Thailand’s over 48 national parks cover all regions and, as a result, encompass a wide range of habitats. Most famous is the magnificent Khao Yai National Park, northeast of Bangkok – a UNESCO World Heritage Site with the most luscious greenery in the Kingdom. Here, bears, tigers, elephants, monkeys, deer, birds and butterflies are just some of the protected species.

Many national parks offer overnight accommodation to help you make the most of your visit.
