Unfortunately, the timing was bad for me, and access to Khao Lommuak was closed off by the Air Force, that controls the area of Wing 5. The climb up to the top is accessible only on public holidays, and the next one, I was told, isn’t apparently until May. However, the start-off point is about 2 kms from Prachuap town, and I took a tuktuk there, for a very reasonable 100 baht, return. You can also bike in from town, on the road that runs along to Ao Manao Bay. The day turned out wonderful, however, in spite of the closure of the path up. I was very spoilt when we visited, as the langurs were out in full display. There are 3 different troops in that one area alone, and they are well protected and coddled. You are allowed to feed them-it is not a national park, as they come down from the jungle of Khao Lommuak, to forage for food. There is a stand by the foot of the hill where you can buy boiled corn for 10 baht. These langurs have a weakness for corn and peanuts, and do not like bananas as much. The spectacles langurs are well worth a visit, just for themselves, and you can see them close up with their golden babies. Definitely recommended if, like me, seeing the langurs was high priority.

The climb looks daunting, but the 398 steps is not too hard. We'll worth it, once you get there and see the amazing views
