Khao Sok in southern Thailand has long been known for its beautiful rainforest and diverse flora and fauna. It’s also the natural habitat of an impressive bird population. Consisting of steep forested limestone slopes, rugged peaks and some smaller areas of lowland habitat, the park offers a spectrum of great birding habitats. In 1986-1987 part of the park has been set under water by the creation of the Chiew Larn hydroelectric dam. A trip by boat on the lake that was formed by this is a magnificent experience and allows for splendid views of the forest and its bird population.
