Amphoe Thep Sathit
Pa Hin Ngam National Park
 This
national park can be reached via the Bangkok-Saraburi-Chai Badan
route, then connecting to Highway No. 205 (Chai Badan-Thep Sathit-Chaiyaphum).
Then take a left-hand road just before the district for 29 kilometres.
The park is littered with large rocks of unusual shapes, some resembling
a nail, a serpent’s head and an ancient castle. In the early
part of the rainy season in July, Dok Krachiao, a jungle flower
with an underground bulb, will sprout pink blooms all over the area.
With winter come orchids emerging from rock cracks and innumerable
types of jungle flowers. Sut Phaen Din is a steep cliff that connects
the Northeast to the Central Region. Visitors can get a panoramic
view of the surrounding area from here. Tents can be set up for
overnighters in the park.
Thep Prathan and Thep Phanom waterfalls are medium-sized waterfalls
at their loveliest in the rainy season. They are 34 kilometres and
48 kilometres from Thep Sathit district, respectively.
