Rafflesia,
the world largest flower, reaching 80 cm in diameter was recently
discovered just a short hike from our resort. This is one of
very few places in the world, where this botanical miracle occurs.
At
Khaosok Rainforest Resort you too can discover the magic of
a tropical rain forest – 738 sq. Kilometers of National
Park connected to four other parks and wildlife sanctuaries
– a vast, unexplored wilderness literally at your doorstep.
At Khaosok Rainforest Resort you always stay in style…
at home with Nature.
Our
resort is beside the river and you can go to swim to be cool
and enjoy the tropical nature around you. Our bungalows have
some great views of the jungle covered mountains around us that
are alive with color and sounds.
