Hi, in all the national parks there are areas specifically for camping....not sure whether you can go off on your own and camp within the park? |



I think you have to stick to the camping grounds ... but there is a good website which might tell you more. www.dnp.go.th

Hi Tilda - did you ever find out a good place to go camping within reasonable reach of bangkok? Also, does anyone know where I cam buy a family size tent (with two compartments)? Thanks |


Hi, i would stick to the national parks as there are a few within a days drive of Bangkok and they offer some great scenery and camping. If you ask at the park headquarters where you are allowed to camp, they will let you know whether you can camp anywhere or if you have to stick to the designated camping areas. I think every national park has different rules. Which one to visit? Khao Yai...of course, but others include Kaeng Krachan close to Hua Hin, Khao Laem in Kanchanaburi...I think you can even camp on Ko Samed and Ko Chang!

thanks very much for the advice...all i need now is the tent and a pair of earplugs to muffle the sound of the kids before dawn...!! |
