This checkpoint marks the entry point to Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park and serves as the start of a popular hiking trail that rewards visitors with sweeping panoramic views from the summit. The trail stretches approximately 3.7 kilometers and is considered intermediate in difficulty, making it accessible to reasonably fit hikers without requiring specialist experience. The route takes most visitors between 90 minutes and two hours to complete, passing through natural forest before opening up to the elevated viewpoints that draw hikers to this area.
The atmosphere at the checkpoint is straightforward and organized. Upon entry, visitors register their name, contact number, and entry time, and are required to log their departure time on the way out. There is a 200 baht entrance fee. Parking is available for motorbikes at the entrance and for cars at a lower control point, though parking is limited. Notably, there are no food or drink vendors along the trail, so arriving prepared is essential.

Great views at the top. There was a 200baht entrance fee and you had to put your name, number and entry time. When finish your hike, you need to write the leave time. Trail was intermediate and most times was not a smooth path - quite rocky, but the ruggedness makes it quite enjoying in my opinion. I would suggest going in the morning to avoid the midday/afternoon heat. Average of 4hrs hiking time in total
Nice trail. Parking available at the entrance for motorbikes, and for cars at the first control. The trail is 3.7km and I would say medium difficulty. Watch out if it’s been rainy the days before, the path will be very slippery. Awesome views from the top, a must do if visiting the area
The best view ever! The trail is not hard, just take your time and the view is stunning! There’s no food or drink shops so make sure you bring snacks/drinks with you.
