To get to the viewpoint on the mountain in Phu Thok, you need to park your car at the mountain’s base and then take a ride on a local pickup truck. The ticket is ฿25 (~USD0.70) per person. Each pick-up truck will leave once it gets 10 people on board and takes about 10 minutes to reach the viewpoint.

When you’re back from the mountaintop, you can roam around the morning market around the area filled with many tasty eateries. You can also opt to check out the residents’ local lifestyles and discover Thai culture up in the north.
