Krabi Urban Forest, Krabi Travel Guide

Getting There

• Walking

  If you are in Krabi Old Town, start at the Krabi Walking Street (also known as Soi Ruen Pho). From there, head south on Maharat Road toward the river. Continue walking until you reach the T-junction at the river. Turn left onto the road along the waterfront, where you’ll see local shops and eateries. Keep walking for about 1 km. You’ll pass by the Krabi River and some charming local sights. After about 10 minutes, you will reach the Pak Nam intersection. From this point, continue straight for another 500 meters until you see signs for Krabi Urban Forest on your left. Follow the path into the forest area.

• Longtail Boat

  For a more scenic route, you can take a longtail boat from Ao Nang Beach. Head to the Ao Nang Pier and find a longtail boat that can take you to the Krabi River. The boat ride typically takes about 30 minutes. Once you arrive at the river, you can either walk along the riverbank or hire a local tuk-tuk to take you the remaining distance to Krabi Urban Forest. Ensure you confirm the drop-off point with the boat operator.

• Tuk-Tuk

  If you are in Ao Nang or any other area in Krabi, you can take a tuk-tuk directly to Krabi Urban Forest. Simply tell the driver you want to go to 'Krabi Urban Forest' or provide the address: 3WF8+WXP, Pak Nam, Mueang Krabi District. The journey will take about 30 minutes from Ao Nang, depending on traffic. The tuk-tuk will drop you off near the entrance to the forest, making it easy to access.

• Bicycle

  For the more adventurous, rent a bicycle from a local shop in Krabi Town or Ao Nang. Head toward Pak Nam area, traveling on local roads that are generally safe for cycling. Follow the main roads toward the river and look for signs directing you to Krabi Urban Forest. The ride is approximately 5 km from Krabi Town and will take around 20-30 minutes. Make sure to wear a helmet and stay hydrated!
