When visiting Chu Yang Sin National Park, walking along the Park, you will see this diverse ecosystem. Listening to the rustling of leaves, the sound of gurgling streams or the sound of birds singing happily, is there anything better? Experiencing camping in the forest is something you should try here. Bringing food and a tent, staying overnight with friends will be one of the memorable experiences that many tourists love on their journey to visit and explore Chu Yang Sin. However, you should be careful not to arbitrarily light a campfire in the forest to ensure your safety. Exploring Chu Yang Sin National Park, you can also go to Krong Kmar waterfall located deep inside the mountains and forests and experience waterfall bathing. Although the waterfall is not too big or high, the water is extremely clear and the rock is flat, so it is ideal for you to immerse yourself in the cool water, dispelling fatigue after walking a long distance. . Once you come to Chu Yang Sin, you cannot help but take the time to conquer the peak of Chu Yang Sin mountain.

Therefore, this mountain has become an attractive target for tourists coming to Chu Yang Sin National Park.

Because Chu Yang Sin National Park is still very wild and has not been exploited for much tourism, you will not be able to find food shops in front of the National Park gate or along the trail into the forest. Therefore, my experience is to prepare drinking water and some food in advance to bring with you. However, it's best to only bring enough to eat. Carrying too much food will make you easily tired from carrying too much, thereby affecting your experience while traveling and exploring Chu Yang Sin National Park. In addition, you should also pay attention to cleaning and taking trash out to throw away, do not leave trash in Chu Yang Sin to protect the natural environment here.
