Kayak into Prehistoric Times
Krabi
Kayaking down the Klong Root in Krabi is like paddling straight into the real-life Jurassic Park. Surrounded by towering limestone mountains and lush tropical forest, this ancient paradise was chosen as a backdrop for the Hollywood sequel “Jurassic World: Rebirth”, set to premiere next month.
Over a decade ago, a series of check dams were constructed as part of a conservation project, transforming the area into a sprawling 100-rai wetland of crystal-clear waters and rich biodiversity. Unique aquatic life and native plants like cornbeefwood, rose apple and terrestrial orchids now make this sanctuary a paradise for nature lovers.
