Doi Phukha national park is the largest in Thailand's north, stretching over 1,680 square km. Its late establishment in June 2000 means that it failed to save much, if any, of the larger wildlife that were previously hunted extensively here. Even the birdlife appears to be lower than what you'd expect for a park of this size.

The park is named after Phukha Mountain, which stands 1,980m high.

Official park admission for non-Thais is 200B, though if you speak Thai you may be able to get the Thai rate of 20B. It's rather insulting that you're expected to pay 200B for a park that has no information at all in English and no English-speaking staff.
