Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP) under Natural Resources and Environment Ministry today (December 11) introduced two new tourist attractions in Chiang Mai: Sui Tang and Doi Lang camping grounds.

 

Sui Tang camping ground is perched at an altitude of 1,390-1,395 metres in Chai Prakan District, while Doi Lang is higher at 1,700-1,720 metres and located in Mae Ai District. Both are part of Doi Fha Hom Pok National Park.

 

 

Facilities in both camping grounds include bathrooms, toilets and parking lots, while each can support up to 150 people. Visitors can enjoy beautiful views of the sunrise, sunset, and sea of fog, hike to the summit of Doi Ang Khang mountaintop or follow the clearly marked bird-watching trails.

And pricing for aliens is ??????

My wife has planned an overnight stay and a hike to the summit for this weekend at Pha Hom Pok.  I have seen no mention of pricing other than tent rentals.  Not really sure which campground we will be staying at, either. 

Is that fog or smog in the photo? ????

It might be me. But who in their right mind would want to go camping. Ruffing it, having to trudge many yards to stinking toilets not to mention the cold and not having any hot showers. When you wake up it the freezing weather. Sorry but just not my type of fun.

 

Added to that it not any cheaper than staying in a hotel and having a nice breakfast with everything on suite. 

And yes I did do it once for 1 night never again.
