Khao Yai National Park: The Third Largest Park in Thailand
Khao Yai spans the Nakhon Ratchasima, Prachinburi, Saraburi, and Nakhon Nayok provinces, making it is the third-largest national park in the country.
Considered to be the best national park in Thailand, especially for spotting wildlife, Khao Yai’s dense forests and jungles house the kingdom’s largest population of wild elephants, along with a fantastic array of other animals, birds, and plant life.
The park is made up of 2,168 sq km (837 sq miles) of rain forests, grasslands, mountains, and waterfalls. Khao Yai was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, and covers five protected areas all the way from Khao Yai to the Cambodian border.
Golfing is exceptional in this area due to the cooler climate and the up-market feel that is always present – one can almost feel like it’s Tuscany! If you choose Khao Yai as one of your golfing stops make sure to play Toscana course – highly recommended!
