点评:Our main goal when visiting this national park was climbing to the top of Doi Pha Hom Pok (Huamereng on Google Maps). I did some research beforehand and it seemed like the rangers don’t allow tourists to take a motorbike or car up the Kiew Lom Campground from where the trail starts. We first went to the park entrance at the hot springs and they, quite rudely, told Us we would have to charter a 4x4 truck to bring us to the top. We then went to the entrance at the Huai Bon Reservoir along Rd 3037 (through which all vehicles that want to got the campground have to go) and the rangers there were incredibly friendly, took a look at our bikes (ADV 160 and NMAX 155) and told us these were fine. We had to pay the fee for entrance with a bike and were free to enter. The road up is in good condition but has a lot of curves. The main hazard are the pick-up trucks that drive down the mountain like crazy. The road is not as steep as I expected from the restrictions but I can understand that a 125ccm with two people and luggage could get in trouble when not handled correctly so they don’t let foreigners into the park with that. But up at the campground there were a lot of motorcycles of all sizes and locals were coming up with 125ccms but I think they had manual clutches.
The trail to the top of the mountain is well marked and easy to follow without a guide. There are also a few other hikes on the trail so it’s hard to get lost.
We didn’t sleep at the campground but for western standards it’s seemed on the lower end. Also the water wasn’t working when we tried to use the toilets but maybe they turn it off during the day…
On our way back we went to the hot springs. They were nice, the park is enjoyable but I wouldn’t pay the entrance fee just for the hot springs. For visiting the mountain top, it is an acceptable price and the hot springs a nice add-on.
翻译:我们此行游览国家公园的主要目标是攀登帕霍姆波克山(谷歌地图上显示为Huamereng)。我事先做了一些功课,发现护林员似乎不允许游客骑摩托车或开车从步道起点——基洛姆露营地——上山。我们先去了温泉附近的公园入口,工作人员态度很差地告诉我们,必须包一辆四驱车才能上山。之后我们又去了怀邦水库附近的入口,沿着3037号公路(所有前往露营地的车辆都必须经过这条路),那里的护林员非常友好,检查了我们的摩托车(ADV 160和NMAX 155)后,告诉我们没问题。我们支付了摩托车入园费后就顺利进入了。上山的路况不错,但弯道很多。主要的危险是那些疯狂下山的皮卡车。这条路并没有我想象中那么陡峭,虽然有限制,但我能理解,一辆125cc的摩托车载着两个人和行李,如果操作不当可能会出问题,所以他们不允许外国人骑这种摩托车进入公园。不过,在营地里,我看到很多各种尺寸的摩托车,当地人也骑着125cc的,但我认为他们的摩托车是手动离合的。
通往山顶的小径标识清晰,即使没有向导也很容易找到。这条小径上还有其他几条徒步路线,所以很难迷路。
我们没有在营地过夜,但以西方的标准来看,营地条件似乎比较简陋。而且,我们想用厕所的时候发现没有水,也许他们白天会把水关掉……
回程途中,我们去了温泉。温泉很不错,公园也挺好玩的,但我不会仅仅为了泡温泉就支付门票。如果只是为了登顶,门票价格还算合理,温泉只是个不错的附加项目。
