Samui View Point

The adventures of Stalios - His summit climb. ⛰️ Stalios a trusted 4x4 rental, can he handle it? 🤔 🛻 He attacked every hump and lump. Up the rough track and down the steep slopes. Stalios was in his element, at one with the wilderness and loving the abandoned roads. Eating up all that came his way. The more rain that came, the bigger his smile grew. 🌧 😃 Each bump and lump giving him a new lease of life. Now with a even greater determination to reach the summit he hit low box and marched onwards and upwards. Large puddles with hidden rocks, Stalios saw it as a poor foot spa. Only wanting more he pushed on with grit. With a break in the rain and the summit in sight, the terrain levels out. 🌞 Stalios lowers the revs and and pull over. Now creeping slowly he moves closer and closer to the edge. Knowing his limits he cames to a stop. Engine off and in that moment calm, totally serenity. For he had achieved. Achieved when other doubted him. 🏆 Achieved proving ages is only a number. 🏆 Knowing been past by a motorbike carrying next weeks shopping is OK. 💪 He sat for a while to take in the views. With the wind and clean air flowing freely through his body. His old yet warm beating heart lived on. ❤️ Stalios feels alive agian. ❤️ Give Stalios a like. ❤️

This view point was made better by the trek up & it’s not for the faint hearted! We were in a 4X4 and it made it with ease, the low box came in handy as a lot and these hills are steep and basically dirt tracks! The track up to this view point is the same as all jungle safaris and ATVs go, so if you have a trusted 4X4 you can do it yourself 🛻

In the first place I thought people are overreacting about how to getting there when I read the reviews. Indeed, I am an experienced bike driver and I was confident getting to the view point on my 160ccm bike, but had to return back just 6min before the destination. I came from the north part (Maenam Beach) and got stuck on the one of the uphill part and had big struggle not falling and sliding off the bike. But the worse part was the way back downhill. The soily part is not flat at all. Strong braking would get the bike sliding away, so you really need to be careful. Riding downhill on the asphalt was not less dangerous. If your brakes get overheated you will have a big problem. I recommend taking a quad or taking a less dangerous route or go by walk, but don't even try by bike.
