Starting with an early call time, we&rsquo;ll pick you up from your accommodation before beginning the 3-hour journey northeast. We&rsquo;ll have a quick stop at The Birder&rsquo;s Lodge to grab some coffee before heading to one of the largest national parks in Thailand.

At Khao Yai National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we&rsquo;ll traverse one of the many nature trails, admiring the local flora and fauna. As it is one of the oldest national parks in the country, you&rsquo;ll find all kinds of animals &ndash; from mammals and reptiles to birds and insects &ndash; in the area. If we&rsquo;re really lucky, we may just spot a herd of elephants nearby.

&ldquo;A beautiful national park with lots of wildlife and good trails through the jungle and mountains. We saw one elephant, a bear cat, hornbills, monkeys, deer and heard lots of gibbons singing&hellip;&rdquo; &mdash; <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com.ph/ShowUserReviews-g2237147-d454888-r746467828-Khao_Yai_National_Park-Pak_Phli_Nakhon_Nayok_Province.html" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank">BL, Switzerland</a>

After lunch, during June-March, we&rsquo;ll trek to Haew Suwat Waterfall and Haew Narok Waterfall, two of the park&rsquo;s most picturesque bodies of water. We&rsquo;ll marvel at the cool cascades, snap photos of the lush scenery, and take a quick respite before making our way back to Bangkok.

&ldquo;The effort to make it down to the bottom was well rewarded with a good view of the waterfall&hellip; being so close to it still made us excited to hear the roar of the falling water.&rdquo; &mdash; <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com.ph/ShowUserReviews-g641719-d6669408-r736012281-Haew_Suwat_Waterfall-Pak_Chong_Pak_Chong_District_Nakhon_Ratchasima_Province.html" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Ong, Singapore</a>
