Sat. 14 - Sun. 15 Oct. at Khaoyai National ParkPakChong, Korat aka Nakhon RatchasimaHow to get there : Driving own car - From Bangkok heading to Northeast part of Thailand.Keep going straight passing Rangsit, Wangnoi,Saraburi. Once you reach Saraburi take the bridge merge onto the right and keep going straight til you reach Pak chong. There are signs all along the way so you will be just fine.Taking the bus - Take a taxi or bus or whatever to Mo chit (the bus station) to the upper floor. Then just walk to ticketing boot no. 50 (there will be guys asking you where you want to go as they wanna sell their tickets so just ignore that) At boot 50th,buy a ticket to Pak Chong which is 148 baht. Then walk to exit on your right hand (facing the ticket boot). At the exit you will see 7-11 shop on the right. Then go downstair and walk all the way to the end of the hall where the bus is parking. (next to the bus to Pattaya parking) Make sure u take Pak Chong bus NOT Pattaya bus 
About the park : 
Khao Yai is Thailand's oldest National Park. It was designated on the 18th September 1962. At 2,168 km it is the largest National Park in Thailand. In 1962 Khao Yai became the 1st National Park under the National Park Act of 1961. It is managed by the Royal Forest Department. Camping area :We will be setting up the tents at the camping spot. There are some camping spots in the park. We can do the real camping where we can set up our tent in the jungle too but we will need longer time for that,at least for 3-4 days but since we will only be camping for 2 days 1 night we will have to just set the tent up where the national park has for us. Should still be fun coz we can have our cook out, campfire and all.Park fee : The entrance fee for foreigners is 200 baht/ person and 20 baht/ person for Thais (I know...such a big different and i hate that in Thailand)Each car have to pay 50 baht as well. You can either bring your own camping gear or rent at the park. I'm not sure how much it is to rent the stuff but shouldnt be too expensive.Meeting spot (before going to the park) :10am at the parking lot of Pak Chong Landmark hotel. You will see it on the left while driving to downtown Pak chong from bangkok. If you come by bus,you can ask the bus driver to drop you off in front of the hotel.I will be waiting there. For more info please PM me or call me. See ya soon!Thanks!SmileZ
