Bring a wrist strap or waterproof case—loose items can be lost on rough sections or during the zipline.

Conservation Note

Stick to designated tracks and avoid off‑trail riding; licensed operators minimize erosion and disturbance—ask about their waste and trail‑maintenance practices.

Phuket’s interior was shaped by 19th‑century tin mining and rubber plantations, which influenced trail routes and ridgeline access used by modern operators.
