Tung
Tiao This is one of only a few lowland forests in Southern
Thailand. The nature trail begins about 800 meters before reaching the
Kao Nor Ju Ji Park offices within the Restricted Hunting Area
of Kao Pra-Bang Kram. It passes through both secondary forest, now in
the process of development and growth, and primary forest containing
very large, ancient trees. The trail climbs into the limestone foothills,
passing a pool of startling clarity and beauty. After that it enters
an area open before returning to the park offices. Many animals and
plant species in the lowland forest are extremely rare, some are close
to extinction. Of particular note is the colourful Pitta Gurney bird,
or nohk taew laew tong dahm in Thai, which
was long thought wiped out but has recently been re-discovered living
in Tung Tiao.
Nam Tohk Hin Perng This three level falls drops
from a height of 800 meters and lies in Ban Hin Perng in Tambon Klong
Pohn, 25 kilometers from the Klong Tom District offices. The area is
forested and shady.
Koh Silah On this island are found many colourful and
exotic species of bird. Koh Silah is 2 Kilometers from Haht Bor Muang
Beach.
