Chiew Lan Lake

Explore the Beauty of Ratchaprapa Dam

The lake created by Ratchaprapa Dam spans over 79,000 acres. When the dam was built, it submerged entire villages, temples, rice fields, fruit gardens, schools, and even mountains. Today, the mountain peaks that rise above the water have become forested islands, creating a perfect habitat for wildlife. The transformation has made the area one of the most stunning natural landscapes in the region.

In this one-day package, you’ll experience the pure beauty of nature through three exciting activities:

• Jungle Trekking to spot wild animals in their natural habitat
• Sightseeing by Longtail Boat, offering breathtaking views of the lake and forest islands
• Exploring a Mysterious Cave, adding an adventurous twist to your journey
• Plus, a Safari Walk to search for rainforest wildlife.

Your experienced tour guide will lead you on a trek through the thick safari, pointing out ancient trees, vibrant forest flowers, exotic wildlife, and intriguing features of the rainforest along the way.

The adventure continues as you board a bamboo raft, fitted with a small engine, to cross the lake to the untouched wilderness on the other side. Once there, the real thrill begins—an exciting cave exploration, where you’ll uncover the secrets of this wild and uncharted territory.

Tips

Why Chew Lan Lake?

Chiew Lan Lake, located in Khao Sok National Park in southern Thailand, is a remarkable destination for several reasons:

1. Stunning Natural Beauty
Chiew Lan Lake is renowned for its otherworldly scenery. The lake’s emerald-green waters are framed by towering limestone cliffs and dense rainforests, creating a breathtaking contrast. The combination of jagged karst formations, jungle-covered mountains, and calm, pristine waters make it a visual paradise for nature lovers and photographers.

2. Biodiversity and Wildlife
The lake is part of Khao Sok National Park, one of Thailand's oldest and most biodiverse regions. The surrounding rainforest is home to a wide array of wildlife, including gibbons, macaques, wild elephants, hornbills, and even the elusive Malayan tapir. Exploring the lake offers a unique opportunity to witness these animals in their natural habitat, whether by trekking through the jungle or cruising on the lake.

3. Peace and Seclusion
Due to its remote location, Chiew Lan Lake is a peaceful escape from the bustling tourist hubs of Thailand. The floating bungalows and raft houses scattered around the lake provide an opportunity to stay amid the serene natural surroundings, offering tranquility and a deep sense of relaxation. The absence of crowds allows for a more intimate connection with nature.

4. Adventure Activities
Chiew Lan Lake offers a range of adventurous experiences. Visitors can enjoy jungle trekking, bamboo rafting, kayaking, and exploring hidden caves filled with fascinating stalactite and stalagmite formations. These activities, combined with the scenic boat rides on the lake, make it a destination for thrill-seekers and nature enthusiasts alike.

5. Floating Accommodations
One of the unique aspects of visiting Chiew Lan Lake is the opportunity to stay in floating bungalows right on the water. These raft houses offer rustic, eco-friendly accommodations with stunning views of the lake and mountains. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle and the sight of mist hovering over the lake is an experience that few other destinations can match.

6. Cultural and Environmental Significance
The lake was formed in 1982 when the Rajjaprabha Dam (also called Chiew Lan Dam) was built to provide hydroelectric power to southern Thailand. While it altered the landscape, the creation of Chiew Lan Lake helped protect the region’s rich biodiversity by making the surrounding area part of a protected national park. The lake stands as a symbol of Thailand's efforts to balance development with environmental conservation.

In short, Chiew Lan Lake offers a perfect mix of natural beauty, adventure, wildlife, and tranquility, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking to experience Thailand's untouched wilderness.
