We've visited Khao Yai National Park many times and it rarely fails to impress. Thailand's first national park and still one of the largest, the park is home to fabulous wildlife: large and healthy population of wild elephants, deer, gaur, gibbons, hornbills, porcupines, civet cats, sloth, wild boar, and lots more. The visitor center is interesting and you can camp or rent cabins in the park. Ten tips for people to consider when visiting: 1) The park is remote and there is no local transportation; hire your own vehicle or rent a vehicle with driver for your visit. 2) Entrance fee for foreigners is 400 baht. Yes; it's 10 times the price charged Thais, but so what! Grow up... it's US$13.... to visit a world-class park! 3) Bring water and snacks. There are basic food stalls at the park headquarters, but frankly the food is not very good and selections are minimal. 4) Don't bother hiking to waterfalls in the dry season. The falls drop to a trickle or less and are not worth the time and effort to walk to. 5) While the rains make for great viewing of the waterfalls, they also bring out lots of leeches. Protect yourself and be prepared for them so they don't ruin your visit. 6) Don't feed the wild animals! It's dangerous and very unhealthy for them. 7) When encountering elephants on the road, keep your distance and absolutely DON'T blow your horn! Elephants (especially bull elephants or mothers with young) can be very unpredictable and dangerous. It is not uncommon for them to "attack" cars and inflict heavy damage to them (don't believe? do a search on YouTube). 8) If you are staying in the park overnight, you can no longer drive the park road going to Prachin Buri after dark. Used to be great for seeing wildlife at night, but now prohibited for the protection of the animals. 9) The park is packed with wildlife, but you have to work to notice and enjoy the birds and animals. That's best done by getting out of your vehicle and off the road (although you can also often see a lot along the roads). Best to consult park officials on good spots and times for viewing hornbills and gibbons. 10) Enjoy!!!

We drove from Bangkok to see Khun Dan Dam. We drove to the top of the dam. We rented a golf cart for 350 Baht a hour. We drove the cart to tour the dam. The distance was about 5 kilometers. We stopped at four different view points. The views were beautiful. The dam is huge.

We visited Sarika Waterfalls on a Wednesday. We were first in the park at 9 am. We hiked up to the Waterfalls. The Waterfalls were beautiful in rainy season.
