last updated 9th August 2007. viewed 498 times Tham Khao WongAbout 40 kilometers before reaching Chanthaburi town on Highway No.3 at Km. 286 (Ban Kong Din) is a left turn to the park, 11 kilometers further on. Or take a turn at Km. 288 (Talat Na Yai Arm) instead.
Tham Khao Wong at Ban Khao Wongkot, Kaeng Hang Maeo district, is part of the Khao Chamao-Khao Wong National Park. Khao Wong is a group of limestone hills standing in circular cluster with cliffs and caves containing stalagmites and stalactites.
Proceed on foot to see the caves themselves. Advice could be obtained from park officials. There are passages connecting some of the chambers. The walking trails outside offer views of varied plant life.
For those intending to explore the caves, torches are advisable as there are no natural lights inside. The best time to go cave-exploring is between February and April, after which they tend to be flooded.
