A perfect way to explore the wilds of Koh Phangan, elephant trekking provides a truly unforgettable adventure that lets you get up close with these gentle giants as well. Travellers should look to stay at Koh Phangan hotels or resorts that let you enjoy the very best the island has to offer including elephant treks. Among the leading Koh Phangan resorts, Rasananda Koh Phangan Villa Resort & Spa is one such option and is ideally located right by the pristine sands of a beach.
Home to lush tropical jungles and mountain landscapes, Koh Phangan and its rich natural scenery is best explored on elephant back. Taking place at locations such as the coastal village of Caloklum, elephant trekking gives you a chance to ride these animals along paths one may otherwise not get to traverse. A mahout sits up front on the elephant’s neck and will be your guide on this memorable excursion that will take you past picturesque scenery and some truly breathtaking vistas. Best of all you get a better appreciation of these creatures and can interact with them on your journey of discovery.
