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 Office 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 and spacious before
returning to the park office. Many animals and plant species
in the lowland forest are extremely rare, some are close to extinction.
Of particular note is the colorful Pitta Gurney bird, or nok taew
laew tong dam in Thai, which was long thought wiped out but has
recently been re-discovered living in Tung Tiao.
Koh
Sila
