Description by the author

This bicycle track is a 90 Km bike ride from Klong Dao Beach on Ko Lanta to Pak Meng Beach in Sikao of Trang Province (including 10 Km on Ko Lanta from Klong Dao Beach to the pier to Klong Dao Beach), being the fourteenth track of the Tour de Southern Thailand - West Coast.

The tour will take about 7 to 8 hours depending on the weather conditions and your physical fitness. The track is fully paved. There is a ferry crossing involved between Ko Lanta and the main land. There are passages involved over main roads with rather heavy traffic. Be careful in these locations. Points of Interest are mainly for reference.


Tips and Warnings

Be cautious as traffic is sometimes chaotic and dangerous. Motor vehicles often fail to see cyclists and pedestrians, so you must closely watch out for them. Motorcycles are a common cause of local accidents. Dogs and potholes can also be dangerous, especially in remote areas.

Be visible and wear yellow or orange colors. Use flashing rear bike lights during your bicycle trip. It is inadvisable to drive at night due to the lack of lighting.

Weather can be very hot, so make sure to drink plenty of fluids and wear sun block. Cover the body parts as much as possible and wear a hat or even better a bike helmet. Stay hydrated!

Be sure to have a tire repair kit with you, as flat tires are common due to the badly maintained roads and the lack of bicycle paths.
