“ The lake offers many recreational opportunities during the rainy and cool seasons, including rafting and cruise services to Bhumibol Dam.”

The lake is located approximately 133 kilometers from Chiang Mai town along the Chiang Mai-Hot-Doi Tao route. This large reservoir is actually situated above the Bhumibol Dam in Tak province.

Doi Tao district is located 125 kilometers from Chiang Mai city, on highway 108, aka the Chiang Mai-Hod Rd., and by State Highway1103 aka the Hod-Mae Tuen highway. Chiang Mai-Doi Tao bus is available daily at Chang Puak Bus Station. However, car is the easiest way of getting there, since the road is well-maintained and not one of the snaky sort that goes over the mountains. There are plenty of places to stop along the way too, to have a snack and enjoy view of the North at its best all round you.

Accommodations are also available
