Towering limestone outcrops form a rocky jigsaw-puzzled landscape at this national park, whose name means Three Hundred Mountain Peaks. There are also caves, beaches and wetlands to explore for outdoor enthusiasts and birdwatchers. Almost all visitors go to see Tham Phraya Nakhon, one of the most spectacular caves in Thailand. Most other places in the park will be peaceful, even on weekends. Hiking and climbing required.
