ลานดูเดือน อุทยานแห่งชาติดอยภูคา

Loved this area, came here without knowing what to expect!

The weather is cool and pleasant, and the scenery is absolutely stunning, lush greenery, rolling hills, and peaceful vibes all around. A perfect place to breathe deeply, recharge, and feel close to nature.

Our friends brought us here to see the endangered Chompoo Phuka Tree... We were glad to come in the right time (beginning of March) so lots of flowers on the tree. These trees are going to disappear in the world if we don't protect them! We also drove up to the Phu Kha Viewpoint. Unfortunately it's a bit foggy that day so couldn't see the beautiful scenery there. The museum was closed...Not sure if that's temporary... We bought some rice over leaf, nuts, and grains with the roadside merchants. It's a fun place to explore if you have time, I'm sure.

The campground is not big but the view is very nice. The shower room is clean. It’s not so far from the view point 1715. There are two small trekking routes.

The national park was as said, just a campsite, which cost $200 to enter, and an additional $50 parking fee if you're driving through. The bungalows were basically all unoccupied on the day of my visit, giving it a slightly eery but tranquil feeling. There is a 4 km hiking trail near the helicopter field, almost being overgrown with shrubs, worth a visit if you want to experience a walk in the deep woods, it's not a close loop though, probably ends at the carpark near the entrance.
