Part of the Huai Nam Dang National Park, located near Pai district, this stunning destination is known for its natural hot springs surrounded by lush forests, winding streams, and a refreshing atmosphere. The area features ample hot water flowing throughout, with two large pools available for visitors. In some places, the pools are spacious enough for a full soak, while in others, you can simply relax and dip your feet. Notably, soaking in the hot springs at Pai Hot Springs offers an authentic experience, as the natural pools retain their original condition without any modifications. Additionally, the park provides a convenience store where visitors can purchase food, snacks, and eggs to boil in designated areas with temperatures reaching up to 80 degrees Celsius. For travelers, it’s advisable not to soak for more than 10-15 minutes at a time. Individuals with pre-existing conditions such as diabetes (particularly those with numbness in extremities) or high blood pressure should consult a doctor before enjoying the hot springs. It’s also recommended to bring extra clothing for a change. Camping is allowed, but prior arrangements with the park are necessary. For those seeking a more private experience, there are private resorts nearby that offer hot spring services. The entrance fee is 40 baht per person.
