Stunning landscapes and the warm climate in Thailand offers nature lovers who love to sleep beneath the stars, an experience of a lifetime.
Best Time to go Camping
While it is possible to go camping all year round here, the best time to do so is considered to be anytime from November to March. These are the driest and coolest months.
National Parks
Choosing a national park set up camp would be the most prudent. Most parks have rangers who are on duty 24 hours and can provide aid if need be. You also can hire them as guides if you feel inclined to go trekking. The Kaeng Krachan in Phetchaburi and Erawan in Kanchanaburi are two national parks with easy reach of Bangkok.
Buy / Rent Camping Gear
Quality tents, mats, sleeping bags and other camping paraphernalia such as gas stoves can easily be rented at the park itself for a reasonable price. If you wish to purchase your own stuff you can pay a visit to places such as Outdoors Unlimited in Amarin Plaza, conveniently located close to luxury hotels in Bangkok from entities such as Chatrium Hotels & Residences.
Off the Beaten Path
Alternatively, if you wish to stay clear of the usual tourist camping spots and trails you can rent a jeep or motorbike and explore a path of your own.
