daledg Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Hey all, Been in Bangkok for a few months, and as I hail from northern cali, this city, although i love it, does wear on me and I miss a peaceful hike in nature. Is there anything nice a short (1-2 hour) bus ride away? Doesn't have to be real hiking either, just a nice stroll in a nice enviroment will do. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmj Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 The best deal in central Bangkok is the Dusit Zoo. Wat Pai Lom Bird Sanctuary: Thanon Chaeng Wattana (Don Muang area) runs to a dead end against the Chao Phraya river at Pak Kret. Take a ferry across to Ko Kret and start walking. The area around the National Science Museum, Klong Luang, Prathum Thani province. Get off the bus at Khlong 5 (Thanon Rangsit-Ongkarak road) and take a motorcycle taxi to the museum.

ianh68 Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 You could do worse than an organised hike, by which I mean organised for Thais and residents rather than tourists. PM me if you want details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
