The drive to the summit is even better than that at Phu Ruea National Park. Some motorcyclists arrived while we there. They didn’t even bother to take in the views. They just enthused about the ride up the mountain, jumped on their bikes and headed down the hill for another thrill ride.
There are a series of 20 or so Interesting rocks 200-500 metres north-east of the carpark.
