Getting to Phu Chi Phoe

Use the same route that head to Thung Dok Bua Tong of Doi Mae U-Kor, the Watershed Management of Maeyod. Before reaching Thung Dok Bua Tong approximately 5 kilometers, there would be a direction sign to turn right. The road condition is a laterite road and it is pretty steep. Upon reaching at the Watershed Management of Maeyod, tourists have to park the car and continue walking to the scenic point with the distance approximately 1 kilometer. Even though, the distance is not far but it is the steep ascent way up to the mountain, thus, the officer suggests us to take a rest from time to time, if you feel tired then don't force, mostly it will take approximately 30-45 minutes climbing. Moreover, tourist is suggested to start climbing around 05.30 in the morning to be in time for admiring the first light of the day and should also take along the flashlight with you.

The ascent way up to Phu Chi Pho with the distance of 1 kilometer.

Some parts of the ascent way are pretty steep and no rail to hold, thus, please beware while you are climbing.

Finally, we reach at the destination, the weather is pleasant cold, however, I would like to take off the sweater as walking up here makes my body sweat.

We are not in time to see the sun rises up from the horizon, but we catch up with the beautiful golden light that shines on the mist that continuously flows by.

On the descent way, if you guys look to the right hand side, you would see Thung Dok Bua Tong (Wild Flowers Field) of Doi Mae U-Kor.

This is the scenery in front of the accommodation in the area of the Watershed Management of Maeyod. The view is extremely beautiful with a balcony to sit back.

There is an officer checkpoint on the decent way, at this stop point, there is a fresh coffee shop for having some coffee while admiring the beautiful view, sitting with legs hanging down among the cold wind that flows along.
