A weekend in Khao Yai

Khao Yai is two and a half hours from Bangkok, yet it feels like another world. The air cools as the road climbs, and the noise of the city falls away.

Saturday

Start early among the vineyards nearby, before the heat settles. Spend the afternoon walking with a resident naturalist.

• 07:00 Breakfast at Treetops Dining
• 09:30 Vineyard tasting
• 15:00 Guided walk to the waterfall

The best hour of the day is six in the morning, while the mist still holds.

Sunday

Wake late. Breakfast on your own terrace, then head back to Bangkok in the late afternoon.
