        1. Thanks Sompho for replying to my qtns .
          May I clarify on 3 more pts pls :

          1. Since cAmping grounds bn mentioned , we will be climbing / walking with no extra loads ? Even our bags can be deposited iat campsites rites ?
          2. Is this repeated route that u hv tried last year as rocky or not that rough ?
          3. What will be the estimated cost for this event excluding airfare ya ?

          Hope can find comrads whom r interested like me to do trainings 2geter in SG b4 setting off for this hike , if any.

    2. Porters are available. Don’t worry about the load. 30 baht per kilogram.
      There are many routes. Waterfall, maple leaves and many view point. The routes are flat, sand, no rock or climbing.
      For the cost we can share. 3000 baht roughly for 3 days exclude food.
      Cheer.

      1. Cool …. my 2 worries taken off yea!
