| I used to go there every 2-3 weeks on a Sunday for a little ride out from Don Muang on one of my bikes . Only took me an hour and a half. Weekends, plenty of Thais go from BKK on their little nifty 150 or in a pick up.
Alternatively you can get a bus for Aranyaprathet/Kabinburi/Sa Kaeow and get off at Khao Yai. Buses run from Morchit and Rangsit.
Weekdays are better and obviously quieter and you'll probably get to see more wildlife running across the road especially if you use your own transport. In a crowded tour bus or songtaew,mmmm...I'm not too sure.
There's plenty of hiking trails but to get to see anything at the end of them requires a long walk. There is a waterfall right next to a parking lot and eating area and a few easily accessible viewing points.
There's accomodation at both northern and southern entrances that I think will cater for any budget as well as travel lodges and camping spots near the center of the park.
No need to head for Pak Chong from BKK. Head for Rangsit then Nakhon Nayok then Khao Yai. |
