Doi Fa Hom Pok National Park Mae Fang Hot Springs Doi Fa Hom Pok http://www.hotsia.com > Chiang Mai > Doi Fa Hom Pok National Park Mae Fang Hot Springs Doi Fa Hom Pok Mae Fang Hot Springs, formerly known as Fang Hot Springs, is located within Doi Fa Hom Pok National Park (renamed from Doi Fa Hom Pok National Park). Here you will find the famous Doi Fa Hom Pok. Today I visited Fang District and will continue to Doi Ang Khang, so I did not have the chance to visit Doi Fa Hom Pok.
I only managed to tour the lower Fang Hot Springs and a little of Huai Mae Jai. I have visited hot springs at San Kamphaeng, Thep Nom, and Jae Son before, so Fang Hot Springs seemed quite mild in comparison. The water looked dry and not very hot. Boiling eggs, which used to take a short time, now takes about half an hour. This might be due to global warming or other environmental changes, causing the hot spring water to nearly dry up. The park has created an artificial hot spring that shoots water several meters into the air.
This semi-artificial spring shoots water from underground every 30 minutes, but it cannot replace the natural hot spring. It is just for visual appeal. From the hot springs, a short walk leads to Huai Mae Jai, which flows through Fang town. When I strolled around Fang, I came across this stream. Local youth love to swim here because the water is strong, cool, and shallow, perfect for jumping and playing. General information about Doi Fa Hom Pok National Park is from the national park website.
Doi Fa Hom Pok National Park is now open for climbing Doi Fa Hom Pok. Visitors must start the climb before 3:30 PM. A 4WD vehicle is required; sedans and vans are not allowed due to the gravel road. You can arrange a vehicle service for 1,800 THB per 8 people (overnight) at the tourist service center. At the Doi Fa Hom Pok National Park office (Mae Fang Hot Springs), you can enjoy mineral baths and traditional Thai massages daily from 7:30 AM to 7:00 PM.
