                                                    How to  get  here: Travel  58  kilometres west of Chiang  Mai via
                                                 Highway  No. 107 to  Chom Thong, then  turn  right  into  Highway  No. 1009
                                                 and continue  a further  distance  of  48 kilometres along  Highway  No.
                                                 1009  to  the  summit.  A good  asphalt  road takes  visitors  up but  is rather
                                                 steep,  thus  the  vehicle  must  be in a good condition.  Visitors  could pay
                                                 for  the  entrance  fee at  Km. 8.
