Phu Kradueng opens on October 1st everyone!!! How much does it cost to travel to Phu Kradueng for 3 days and 2 nights? Is it true that you must conquer Phu Kradueng once in your life? This review has a short summary in our own style. What is so good about Phu Kradueng that everyone, including us, likes to go there? ▪️First, let's get to know Phu Kradueng briefly. Phu Kradueng is the second national park in Thailand. It is located in Sri Than Subdistrict, Phu Kradueng District, Loei Province. It is a flat sandstone mountain with a flat top and a large plain. It covers an area of ​​approximately 60 square kilometers and is 400-1,200 meters above sea level. The unique natural beauty of this mountain makes it one of the top hiking trails that many people choose to visit. The hiking trail consists of a 9-kilometer walking trail: 5 kilometers uphill and 3-4 kilometers on flat land. ▪️For us, this was our first time going up Phu Kradueng. We fell in love with this place because it has a charm and a unique identity unlike any other. The beautiful nature and diversity, including pine forests, cliffs, and morning mist, there are camping sites, and both short and long hiking trails. Plus, there are many delicious foods, making you fall in love with this place without realizing it. 📌At the park office, there is a fee collection point for adults (Thai people) at 40 baht per person, children 20 baht. 📌The park provides porters at 30 baht per kilogram. You can contact the park before going up the mountain. 📌How to prepare for Phu Kradueng? 1. You must be physically fit and prepare your legs. It is recommended to squat a lot, 200 times a day, because the distance is quite steep in some parts. Your body must be at a certain level of fitness. 2. Prepare clothes suitable for hiking that can be easily ventilated and should prepare cold weather equipment because the weather is cold up on the mountain. 3. Carry common medicines, painkillers, fever reducers, and personal medicine for emergencies. 4. Withdraw enough cash for use. Although the shops up there accept mobile banking transfers, sometimes the signal is not good, so it will be a bit difficult to transfer. 5. You can book a tent with the park before going up the mountain. It is recommended to use the park's tent service because the tent area is more proportionate and not as crowded as the tents of shops, and the bedding is much better. 📌Expenses for traveling to Phu Kradueng 1. Round-trip transportation costs approximately 1,400 baht per person 2. Round-trip songthaew costs 70 baht per person from Pha Ngo to the park 3. Park entrance fee 40 baht 4.

Recommendations for choosing a car from Bangkok to arrive at Pha Ngok at around 5:30 to 6:30 so you can quickly travel to the park to reserve a tent and queue up to hire porters. #Tent site

"Phu Kradueng", a charming mountain in Loei Province. If you think of a hiking spot, Phu Kradueng is one of the top places that attracts tourists to conquer it at least once in their lives, so that they can see the beauty of nature at the top of Phu Kradueng with their own eyes. In addition to a strong body, mental strength is also very important because the path to reach it requires patience to conquer it. For this trip, we took a car from Bangkok at night and arrived at Pha Ngoen in the early morning. We stopped to eat at Je Kim's restaurant, washed our faces, rested a bit, and then took a songthaew to Phu Kradueng National Park. Then, we contacted the park to reserve a tent and sleeping equipment. If you come during a long holiday, I recommend booking online in advance, which will be more convenient. For this trip, we hired porters to carry our bags. The price is 30 baht per kilogram. When you're ready, you can start the journey. The hike up Phu Kradueng is divided into various sams, starting from Sam Haek, Sam Bon, Sam Kok Kok, Sam Kok Wa, Sam Kok Pai, Sam Kok Don, and Sam Krae. What makes you less tired is that each sam has food all the time. I can tell you that you can stop to eat at every sam. It's true. Prepare a lot of money. Because of the tiredness, anything is really delicious. Even though Sam Krae is not finished, from this point to Lang Pae, it is considered brutal and steep. If you pass this point, walk from Lang Pae for 3 km to the office. Contact the accommodation and find something to eat and rest. When you arrive at Phu Kradueng, there are still many activities to do, such as watching the sunset at Pha Lom Sak, watching the sunrise at Pha Nok Aen, watching maple leaves at Tham Yai Waterfall, stopping by Sa Anodat, Pha Na Noi, Pha Mak Duk, Pha Daeng, and many other waterfalls. Having 3 days and 2 nights is just right, not too tiring. Traveling around Phu Kradueng. You can walk around to visit various places or rent a bicycle to ride, whichever is more convenient. On the day of returning, walking down will be a bit easier. It's already chill, but after the trip, your body will be sore for many days. I recommend preparing your body before walking. Finally, we have become the ones who "conquered Phu Kradueng once in a lifetime" 😍😍 ⏰Phu Kradueng is open from October 1st to May 31st of every year. #Hiking #Phu Kradueng Phu Jai #Conquered Phu Kradueng #Visit Loei

Adventure on the mountaintop, experience the morning mist at Phu Kradueng National Park, a special destination for nature lovers, hiking enthusiasts and those who dream of experiencing the beauty of the morning mist on a high mountaintop.

Then prepare your body and luggage because we have to carry a backpack and walk up the mountain for about 5.5 kilometers, taking an average of 3-6 hours, depending on the strength of each person. The walking path up Phu Kradueng stretches through abundant nature, full of various species of trees, creating a shady atmosphere all the way, allowing us to relax from fatigue. Along the way, there will be rest stops at intervals. When we overcome the fatigue to the top of Phu Kradueng, worthwhile rewards await us, whether it's a panoramic view, a sea of ​​white mist in the morning, and a cool breeze blowing all day long.
