The Experience

Before You Go

Respect weight & health limits

The course enforces a maximum weight (~120 kg/265 lb) and excludes pregnant travelers or those with serious back/neck issues—don’t risk it.

Wear closed-toe shoes

Sturdy sneakers or hiking shoes improve stability on spiral stairways and landings; flip-flops are not allowed.

Hydrate and eat light

Bring a small water bottle and eat a light breakfast—full-adventure includes lunch but you’ll want steady energy between runs.

Time your pickup

Hotel pickup can be 30–60 minutes before the scheduled start—be ready in your lobby 15 minutes early to avoid delays.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Short walk to viewpoints overlooking inland Phuket ridges (ask guides for the closest platform viewpoint)
  • Local fruit market stands near pickup points—try seasonal mangosteen or rambutan after the tour

Wildlife

  • Long-tailed macaque
  • Asian hornbill

Conservation Note

The operator emphasizes minimal-impact installation and guided group sizes; visitors are asked to avoid leaving litter and to follow guide instructions to protect wildlife and vegetation.

The area reflects Phuket’s inland landscape, historically used for rubber and fruit plantations before recreation and conservation interests opened sections of forest to low-impact tourism.
