The slogan of Udon Thani province, "Land of Natural Wonders," immediately sparked my curiosity to explore.




A Jungle Feast in Khilekwongkot: A One-Day Adventure

Nestled amidst the mountains and streams of Khilekwongkot village lies a hidden gem: a jungle feast experience unlike any other. This one-day trip promises an immersive journey through nature, culminating in a delicious meal surrounded by breathtaking scenery.

The Journey Begins:

Your adventure starts with a scenic ride on an "e-taek," a traditional Thai tractor-trailer, taking you through winding paths and lush landscapes. The journey itself is an experience, offering glimpses of the village's natural beauty and local life.

Reaching the Hidden Paradise:

After approximately 50 minutes, you'll arrive at the starting point of your trek: the Huay Chang Phluai waterfall. This small waterfall serves as the gateway to the hidden paradise where your feast awaits. The path leading to the site offers a mix of easy and challenging terrain, adding to the thrill of the adventure.

A Feast for the Senses:

Upon reaching your destination, you'll be greeted by a meticulously prepared jungle feast. Imagine savoring delicious local dishes amidst the tranquil sounds of nature, surrounded by the vibrant colors of the forest. This is a truly unique dining experience that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Planning Your Trip:

To make the most of your experience, it's recommended to arrive at Khilekwongkot village between 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM. This allows ample time to enjoy the journey, the trek, and the feast without feeling rushed. The cost for the e-taek ride is 1500 baht for a group of four, translating to 375 baht per person.

To get here, you must call and make a reservation in advance. We traveled from Sangkom District, Nong Khai Province, which is not too far away. We made a reservation by phone, and when we arrived, the villagers had everything prepared and waiting for us. Let's load the stuff onto the truck. What are we waiting for?

The next step was to take the "e-taek" (a type of Thai vehicle). At this point, the final destination was still unknown, but it was clear that the journey would involve traversing both water and forest. And indeed, just a short distance later, the vehicle encountered water. "Uncle, please stop!"


Both water and forest, all at once. You ask if I can handle it, and I answer, "Easy!"



After a short ride, we arrived at the campsite, or rather, our dining location. Upon arrival, we were immediately awestruck by the breathtaking scenery. To our left, a pristine stream flowed, and to our right, majestic mountains stood tall. It was truly a sight to behold.


The eyes are about this size. It reminds me of my childhood when I used to play in the rice fields.


Feeling tired from the journey? How about a refreshing glass of water? Haha. The bamboo smells so good. This event is going to be so country-style.


Behold, the equipment. Forget about kitchen utensils at home, because this is the real wilderness.


The villagers will prepare fresh food for us to eat. Let's go and help them. What should we help with? I think it's best to help from a distance, haha.


Cooking rice porridge with curry in a bamboo tube is here. Let's go!


The food is ready to be served. I'm hungry! The curry cooked in bamboo tubes, the rice cooked in bamboo tubes, the freshly grilled chicken and fish, plus the papaya salad. Who can resist? I'm hungry, brother, I'm hungry! Serve it up!


Hold on a second, please.


After finishing our meal, we took a short break before heading out for a stroll along the stream. The current was strong due to the heavy rainfall, so we had to rely on equipment to help us navigate. As we walked, I reached out my hand, and Tei responded by extending his. "I'll push you myself," I said playfully, before correcting myself, "I mean, I'll hold your hand."


Venturing into the wilderness requires proper equipment.


The view upon entering is like this. It is water flowing from a small but deep waterfall, beautiful in its own way.


The sky opened up, and rain started falling out of nowhere. It just started raining all of a sudden.


It's going to get wet anyway, so let's go play in the water.


The sky after the rain is always beautiful. That's right, this sentence can be used with this picture.


When the rain stopped, we went back to play in the water. We played so hard, as if we had never played before.


Note: The original text is empty, so the translation is also empty.

Let's see some dreamy pictures.


I have tried all positions, lying down, sitting, and standing.


On the way back, the road was like this due to the rain. Our feet were also like this. It was fun. If you come here, please wear sandals.


The fun is over. Sitting in the car with a gloomy face. Sigh. I really don't want to go back yet.


Let's take a quick photo before we leave. The evening light is so soft and beautiful.


At the end of my journey, I have nothing more to say than to encourage everyone to come and experience this place for themselves. You will fall in love with it. Let's support rural tourism. I think I've fallen in love with this kind of travel. Thank you to the three brothers who took care of me, and thank you to my fellow travelers. I loved this trip and had a lot of fun. Thank you.
