The highest point in Thailand
Rising 2,565 meters above sea level, Doi Inthanon Summit marks the highest geographical point in Thailand. Unlike typical mountain peaks, the summit features a rare, high-altitude alpine wetland accessible via the Ang Ka Nature Trail.
Whatever is not yours: let go of it. Your letting go of it will be for your long-term happiness & benefit.
This loop trail features a dedicated wooden boardwalk guiding visitors through an ethereal, moss-covered cloud forest. Due to the constant moisture and low temperatures, every tree trunk, branch, and handrail is carpeted in thick green moss and lichens, creating a unique, prehistoric ecosystem.
The Thai National Observatory (TNO)
Situated near the mountain summit to escape light pollution and atmospheric disturbance, the Thai National Observatory serves as the main research facility for the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand (NARIT).
Equipped with a state-of-the-art 2.4-meter optical telescope, it is one of the most advanced stargazing and astronomy facilities in the ASEAN region. Positioned high above the cloud line for most of the dry season, it plays a vital role in global deep-space observation and tracking projects.
