Oct 1, 2024 | News

There are many wonderful places to visit in Kui Buri – Thailand’s hidden gem for wildlife and nature lovers. Here are a few to visit from your luxury villa in the SugarPalm Estate

Yang Chum Reservoir

Nestled in the lush landscapes of Thailand’s Prachuap Khiri Khan province, Yang Chum Reservoir offers a serene escape for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone looking to take a break from the hustle and bustle. Known for its peaceful atmosphere, beautiful views, and rich biodiversity, Yang Chum Reservoir is a great spot for a day trip or a quiet retreat.  Yang Chum Reservoir is an ideal destination for travelers looking for a scenic, peaceful place to relax, have a picnic, or enjoy the fresh air. Unlike Thailand’s popular beaches and bustling cities, this spot remains relatively quiet and less frequented by tourists, giving visitors a chance to experience Thailand’s natural beauty at a slower pace.

Kui Buri National Park

Kui Buri National Park offers a unique experience for wildlife enthusiasts, with its large, open fields where visitors can spot wild elephants and gaurs, one of the largest species of wild cattle. This is one of the few places in Thailand where visitors can see elephants in their natural habitat, thanks to the park’s dedicated observation zones that minimize human impact. The chance to see these animals up close, free from enclosures, is both rare and memorable, creating a safari-like experience that sets Kui Buri apart.

Beyond the wildlife, the park’s beautiful landscapes make it ideal for nature photography and quiet exploration. Lush forests and wide-open grasslands create a serene atmosphere, perfect for anyone looking to connect with nature away from the usual tourist trails. The park’s eco-friendly regulations ensure that each visit supports conservation efforts, helping preserve the habitat of these animals and contributing to sustainable tourism in Thailand.
