Khaosok Elephant Sanctuary
Khao Sok Elephant Sanctuary is Safe haven where our elephants are retired from work, and living in the harmony of the rainforest. We have a few tour options available, and look Forward to welcoming you to our little peace of heaven in the beautiful area of Khao Sok. Our elephants live in the shade of the palm trees with our own fresh water river flowing through the property where they can swim and drink. And where you can sit on our swings and enjoy observing, out you will be able to feed and take lots of photos with the Eles. Bathing stresses the elephants out, and it is always against their will to be forced into the water for tourists to’ wash ’them. The welfare of our animals comes first and foremost, so knowing that they do not like this practice we do not allow it. However, we have many other things you can do on our property, for example:
Half day -2,100 baht per person.
-Meet our elephants and feed them some bananas.
