The Experience

Before You Go

Observe weight and health limits

The park enforces a 125 kg weight limit and excludes pregnant visitors or those with serious heart or back conditions—honor these rules for safety.

Wear secure footwear

Closed-toe, grippy shoes are required; flip-flops and sandals will be denied at check-in.

Book morning slots to avoid heat

Choose the earliest time possible—temperatures and humidity rise quickly and morning runs are less crowded.

Secure loose items

Leave phones and loose jewelry at the briefing desk or use secure pockets—glasses and cameras should be tethered.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Kathu Waterfall — a shaded natural pool for a cool dip after your run
  • Phuket Old Town — street murals and Portuguese‑Chinese architecture for a cultural cooldown

Wildlife

  • Long‑tailed macaques (watch for bold individuals)
  • Tropical birds such as kingfishers and hornbills

Conservation Note

The park limits group sizes and uses guided supervision to minimize tree impact; visitors are encouraged to follow leave‑no‑trace practices and use existing trails.

The inland forests of Phuket grew back over former tin and rubber lands; the park sits where agricultural plots and secondary rainforest meet.
