Mu Ko Lanta National Park

It is a nice easy park to spend the morning at. The drive to the park is beautiful, and we saw lots of langur monkeys on the way! It is quite steep and windy, and inexperienced bikers should proceed with caution. The nature trail is rather steep at the beginnings and ends, so go early in the morning before it heats up. We were also lucky enough to see several langur monkeys on this trail. I would recommend doing the nature trail in clockwise fashion as intended. That way, you are climbing UP the hardest part, and you get to descend with some easier stairs. The beach is beautiful white sand beach, with lots of shade. However, there are lots of sharp rocks in the water and we both cut our feet up pretty good. It is one of the fewer east-facing beaches on the island. However, it is at the southernmost tip of this island so you could surely catch a sunset from the lighthouse area.

Really nice and easy walk in the national park - about 2 kms. It’s a relaxed trail. You’ll see two kinds of monkeys along the way, which is pretty cool! Just make sure to watch your bags and food because they can be quick and aggressive. You start from the entrance near the parking lot and end to beautiful beach. The entrance fee is 200 THB, plus 20 THB for a motorbike. The ticket also covers the waterfall on the same day.

Beautiful place. The trail at the beginning is quite challenging, but it’s definitely worth it. You need proper shoes — don’t wear flip-flops. We saw monkeys, enjoyed beautiful views, and learned about some plants along the way. To complete the whole route, you need around 1 hour plus 1 hour to chill etc

A little national park at the end of Koh Lanta Island. 200 baht per Person and 20 baht per Bike. Nice but steep path up the national park and around it through the jungle. Gotta get there in the morning or late afternoon to see some animals. Amazing beach to chill in, with lifeguards.

This national park is ok, but in my opinion, it’s not really worth the detour. It’s very remote, and once you’re there, there isn’t that much to do. The one short hike available is mostly in the forest, with limited views. As for the beach, it’s pretty, but there are definitely better places if your goal is swimming or spending time by the water. The park itself is pleasant, but when you factor in the distance and the cost. One cool highlight, though, is the drive to get there. Along the way, you’ll likely see a lot of monkeys, which is pretty fun and definitely the most memorable part of the experience.

What an amazing place! A lovely ride to the national park, 200bht entrance fee & 20bht for scooters. We did the nature trail at the car park and took us about an hour. A lovely walk, good paths for the majority, some steps and steeper areas. We loved walking through the jungle, looking out for animals, we saw some monkeys and admiring the nature & trees When you get the beach it’s a postcard view, absolutely beautiful hidden beach cool views from the lighthouse too! A beautiful day out, well worth the visit!

Really nice place, quite and peaceful. We were there in the morning. Was really good choise because later when we came back from the jungle tour was total full with people. So if you wanna get there, go there for the opening. (9:00). If you go by scooter, be careful because there are very steep slopes on the road, and after you leave the residential area, sometimes animals walk on the road. Monkeys etc. Enjoy!

Nice walk through the greenery of the national park, took about an hour and instructions on the map are very clear. If you start up the stairs be aware, as they mention, the first 400m are VERY STEEP. And not always easy to step. After that it’s easier steps & pathway. If you start on the pathway, at the end you’ll be coming down the very steep bit, which in my opinion is worse! But the path leads to a gorgeous beach, worth staying a bit, and a very short walk away is a small place to get drinks & snacks.
