This trip was inspired by friends' stories. We did some research and set off immediately. This time, we took a Sukhothai Win Tour bus to Khiri Mat. The bus arrived at the Khiri Mat stop at 4:00 AM. We got off the bus feeling disoriented in the early morning darkness. Fortunately, there was a convenience store nearby. We went in to buy some food and asked the clerk how to get to our destination. She said, "Since you're alone, take a motorcycle taxi. You can go around 6:30 AM." We had read in a review that we could walk around the fresh market first, so we followed the review and walked about 1 kilometer. We found a small fresh market that only sold fresh produce. We looked around for a bit and then walked back to wait in front of the convenience store. Soon, a sticky rice and pork vendor arrived. We bought 3 packs for 10 baht each, which was a lot of food. If you're passing by, please support her. She is a single mother.

We didn't wait for the morning and went to the national park instead. Under the tree, there was a phone number of Uncle Win written on the booth. We called him and waited for 10 minutes. He arrived and drove us slowly because it was still dark and cold. After 30 minutes, we arrived at Ramkhamhaeng National Park. The fare was 150 baht. The officers told us to wait for the registration point to open, which should be before 8 am. We left our bags with the officers and explored the area.

Let's get to know Ramkhamhaeng National Park first.

Ramkhamhaeng National Park, also known as "Khao Luang Forest", encompasses Khiri Mat, Ban Dan Lan Hoi, and Mueang Sukhothai districts, covering an area of 213,125 rai. The park's lush forests serve as a vital watershed for the surrounding agricultural areas. Established as the 18th national park of Thailand on October 27, 1980, Ramkhamhaeng National Park plays a crucial role in preserving biodiversity and supporting the livelihoods of local communities.

Here is the translation of the provided text:

The majority of the area is covered by a large mountain range, with the highest peak being "Khao Luang," which consists of four peaks: Khao Narai (1,160 meters above sea level), Khao Chedi (1,185 meters), Khao Ka (1,200 meters), and Khao Ya (1,200 meters).

We walked back to sit and wait to meet 6 other people who were also waiting to climb the mountain. We chatted for a while to get to know each other. When the park ranger arrived, we registered and paid the tent rental fee of 150 baht and the park entrance fee of 20 baht. We met the park superintendent, who also talked to everyone. When it was time to respect the national flag, we lined up and listened to the park superintendent explain the details of the work because the next day there would be a large group of 300 people coming. We smiled because we arrived early; otherwise, we would have been overwhelmed. We read reviews that said the path was difficult, so we left our belongings with a porter to help us. The cost of carrying belongings here is 20 baht per kilogram. We started walking with the 6 other people, leaving the tourist service center at 8:30 am.

Before setting off to the right, there is a shrine to the Earth Goddess and a Buddha statue. Every time you enter the forest or climb a mountain, you must pay your respects first.

The trail continued, becoming increasingly challenging with a gradual increase in elevation. The lush greenery intensified as the path progressed, covering a distance of 3,720 meters.

As the trail becomes more challenging, you will encounter natural water sources. These sources, according to officials, provide safe drinking water that originates from the nearby mountains. The water is refreshingly cold.

Soon, we reached the halfway point, where there is a scenic viewpoint that Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn once visited.

After a steep climb, another rest stop offers stunning views.

The trail to the summit is well-defined, with towering trees lining the path, ensuring a clear and straightforward ascent.

The porter caught up with us.

We are nearing our destination. Just a little further.

We arrived at the campsite, drenched in sweat, after a 2.30-hour hike.

Upon arrival, we contacted the tent officer who informed us that we would have to wait as they were currently painting and installing new signs. While waiting, we explored the restrooms, which were clean and well-maintained. The water was refreshingly cold.

After selecting our tent, we unloaded our bags and waited for the staff to install the sign. While waiting, we boiled water to make tea and coffee.

With all the necessary gear, including sleeping bags, sleeping mats, and a tent reservation, we were ready to embark on our adventure to conquer the four peaks, following the map provided by the park brochure.

The first point to walk to is the Phra Chedi peak, 1,185 meters above mean sea level.

After leaving Phra Chedi Hill, follow the path to the top of Phra Mae Ya Hill. Along the way, there are stunning views.

The path leading to the peak of Phra Mae Ya Mountain is very steep. The peak of Phra Mae Ya Mountain is 1,200 meters above sea level and is the closest sunset viewing point to the camping area.

From Khao Phra Mae Ya, head straight to the peak of Phu Ka, which stands 1,200 meters above sea level and offers another stunning sunset view.

Walk back to Khao Phra Narai peak. At the helicopter landing pad, you will find a sign for Pha Chom Prang viewpoint, 100 meters away.

Following the fence that encloses the signal repeater poles will lead you directly to the destination.

After leaving Pha Chomprong, the final destination is the summit of Mount Phra Narai, which stands at 1,160 meters. This is a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise.

With time to spare before sunset, we descended to the campsite to bathe.

After a long break, I set off again for the summit of Phra Mae Ya Mountain at 5:30 PM, hoping to capture the sunset there.

Upon returning to the campsite, we had a Mama instant noodle party, chatted, and stargazed in the middle of the field. Around 10 pm, we went to sleep.

The next morning, I set my alarm for 5:00 am. The staff told me that the sun would rise around 6:00 am. After setting out, I reached the summit of Mount Narai just as the first light of dawn appeared.

Sitting with legs dangling, braving the cold wind.

The light show was spectacular and truly impressive.

The young people who joined us on our hike to the top of the mountain had a lot of fun.

Let's have a cup of coffee before we descend the mountain.

We started walking down with the students at 9:30. We will be closing the first part of the event.

On the way down, there were more opportunities to see and stop.

We quickly descended the mountain, overtaking the younger hikers. Our initial plan was to continue to Ban Na Ton Chan, but we decided to descend instead. The descent took 1 hour and 20 minutes. Along the way, we encountered 4-5 other tourist groups and a group of 300 students who were gradually ascending the mountain. We enjoyed a refreshing swim and lunch at the park's canteen, where a meal costs 40 baht. After lunch, we decided to change our plans and return to Bangkok immediately. We did not wait for the younger hikers. The park ranger informed us that those who were leaving would be reimbursed for their transportation costs, which were the same as the 150 baht we paid on the way up.

Upon reaching the original Khiri Mas point where you disembarked from the tour bus, opposite the convenience store, wait for a blue songthaew to take you to Sukhothai Bus Terminal. From there, you can board a tour bus back to Bangkok.
