Getting there

Car

If you are traveling by car, start from the main town of Thong Sala. Head south on the main road (Route 4171) towards Ban Tai. Continue on this road for about 6 kilometers. Look for a sign to 'Unnamed Road' and take a left turn. Follow this road for about 1 kilometer until you reach the trekking area marked by the coordinates Q2MV+RPP. There is usually parking available nearby, but be aware that some areas may require a small parking fee.

Songthaew (Shared Taxi)

For those using public transportation, catch a songthaew from Thong Sala to Ban Tai. Songthaews are available near the Thong Sala pier and cost around 30-50 THB per person. Inform the driver you want to go to Ban Tai. Once you arrive at Ban Tai, ask to be dropped off at the entrance to the 'Unnamed Road' leading to the trekking area. From there, it’s a short walk to the trekking starting point, which is about 1 kilometer.

Motorbike Rental

Renting a motorbike is a popular option for getting around Koh Phangan. You can rent a motorbike from various rental shops in Thong Sala for approximately 150-300 THB per day. From Thong Sala, follow the same route as you would by car: head south on Route 4171, turn left onto 'Unnamed Road', and proceed for about 1 kilometer to reach the trekking area. Ensure you have a valid license and wear a helmet for safety.

Bicycle Rental

For a more eco-friendly option, consider renting a bicycle. Many shops in Thong Sala offer bicycles for rent at around 100-200 THB per day. The trek to the starting point on 'Unnamed Road' requires physical effort, so be prepared for an uphill ride from the main road. The ride will take approximately 30-40 minutes, depending on your pace. Once you reach the 'Unnamed Road', continue for about 1 kilometer to the trekking area.
