Description: |
|
The largest teak tree in the world stands in Ton SakYai Forest
Park. The tree, estimated to be more than 1,500 years old, is 37
meters high and has a circumference of 9.58 meters at its base.
Although the upper part of the tree was broken off in a storm,
the trunk is still alive and well-cared for. Found in 1927, the
giant teak tree is part of the 35 square kilometer park of mixed
deciduous forest. A two-kilometer trekking route allows
visitors to explore the forest firsthand.
The SakYai
Forest Park is about 92 kilometers from Uttaradit City via
Highways Nos. 1045, 1146 and 1047, past the entrance to
KhlongTron National Park. The drive passes through deciduous
dipterocarp forest and teak forest, where the leaves change into
beautiful colors during the winter months. On the way back, it
is possible to make a detour through the forest along the road
to Sirikit Dam and ThaPla, before returning to the main road to
Uttaradit.
SakYai Forest Park is open daily 6.00 am –
6.00 pm.
Admission fee is 100 bath for adults and 50 bath
for children. |
