Mae Ping National Park, Lamphun Province, Thailand
4.0 (9 reviews) Spent Ranking #3 in Li National Parks • Parks
Dry season
This is a very beautiful National Park located in a less touristy area south of Lamphun city. Unfortunately February is a dry season. Many forest is burning out. Very few water in the river Ping as well. Maybe better to go another month.

Challenging Birding with accommodation review
I couldn't find a separate listing for the local accommodation so I will add it here. The first night, not knowing what to expect we showed up in Li and got a room at the Ban Palyn Hotel on the outskirts of town. They have simple, clean rooms and a nice restaurant with great views of the countryside. The 2nd night, we entered Mae Ping NP early in the morning for birding and drove all the way to the end of the road to Thung Kik where there is a campsite and hostel. We got a double room for around $10-12ish with shared bathroom. I have a lot more details on my blog - Miles to the Wild. You will need a car and it's best to rent one and drive yourself so you can stop at will for bird watching. The forest is very thick making birding a big challenge, they retreat into the trees.

Quiet, beautiful forests, wonderful for birdwatching and hiking
We loved the park because there weren't many people there, making bird-watching more conducive. There are so many beautiful woodpeckers. There are also paths for hiking and some gullies you could wander through, as well as a nice waterfall that is easy to walk to. Camping areas with toilet/shower facilities are available, but you need to bring your own food and drinking water. Most of the personnel we encountered spoke little or no English, but they were all so helpful and kind. Great park
