Information

The Rotary Club of Thong Pha Phum has submitted recommendations to the Royal Forest Department to establish at Khao Phra Ruesi National Reserved Forest, Bo Rae Plot 2, Thong Pha Phum District in Kanchanaburi Province. It has an area of approximately 300,000 rai (480 square kilometers) and was considered as a National Park because there is a fertile forest area and it is a watershed area full of breathtaking natural scenery.
The Royal Forest Department considered the protection of natural forest resources and watersheds by government policy. Therefore, Mr. Sarawut Mueangpra, Forestry Officer Level 5 No. 2237, who served as the superintendent of Phu Muang Forest Park and Phra Thaen Dong Rang Forest Park was order to explore more of the forest area in Kanchanaburi Province, under the National Parks Act of 1961. Mr. Pricha Phurahong, Forestry Officer Level 5, position No. 2225, was assigned to work as the superintendent of Phu Muang Forest Park and Phra Thaen Dong Rang Forest Park. By virtue of Section 19 of the National Reserved Forest Act 1964, the Forestry Technical Officers, Forestry Management Officers, and Forestry Officers, who are competent officials and act as the head of this National Park under the Royal Forest Department's order, have the power to perform any act in the National Reserved Forest for the sake of control, and are able to maintain the National Reserved Forest

Later, Lam Khlong Ngu National Park recevied a letter numbered Ko So 0712.444/56, dated July 7th, 2000, to present information to the National Park Board, about the area being affected by the announcement of the establishment of a National Park. This ensured it did not contravene the National Park Act, 1961, and the area was prepared to be declared as Lam Khlong Ngu National Park.
Lam Khlong Ngu National Park forests are very fertile because this National Park is located in Tanaosi Mountain range, adjacent to Thung Yai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary, Khao Laem National Park, and Khuean Sinakharin National Park. Thus, there is a wide variety of flora and fauna and it is most suitable for leisure and learning.

The park contains the highest limestone pillars in the world, at 62.5 meters. It is part of watershed for Sinakarin Dam, which has an area of 375,000 rai or 600 square kilometers. The National Park Division under the Protected Area Regional Office of the Royal Forest Department brought the matter to the consideration of the National Park Committee on October 17th, 2000. The meeting resolved to approve the establishment of a National Park.

Note : After paying the entrance fee to the National Park, please carry the receipt for inspection.

The majority of the area is covered by folded complex mountains, which run north to south. This area is part of Tanaosi Mountain range and ranges in elevation from about 100 to 1,000 meters above sea level with Bo Ngam as the most important peak.

The area has a tropical monsoon climate, with the southwest monsoon influencing the area in summer and the northeast monsoon influencing the area in winter. This area is characterized by complex valleys, which makes it extremely hot in summer and very cold in winter.
The year can be divided into three seasons:
- Summer, which runs from March to May.
- Rainy season, which runs from June to October.
- Winter, which runs from November to February.
From June to September, the sky is typically cloudy; from November to April, the sky is usually clear

The overall forest feature of Lam Khlong Ngu National Park is prosperous, containing mixed deciduous forest and a dry evergreen forest. They can be divided into three types:
- High dry mixed deciduous forests mixed with bamboo are found in the upper and lower catchment areas of Lam Khlong Ngu Creek at an elevation above 300 meters, There are 2-3 types of bamboo that are quite dense.
