Phnom Bokor National Park

Phnom Bokor National Park is the most beautiful and most mystical natural park of Southeast Asia. Phnom Bokor National Park was established by Royal decree in 1993. Named after its shape, Phnom Bokor (ox hump mountain) is part of the Elephant Mountain range. The park spans an area of about 1580 square kilometers spreading out four Cambodian provinces; bordering the Cardamom Mountain Range in the East, Kirirom National Park in the North and ending less than a kilometer from the coastline in the South. Temperatures in Bokor are lower than in Phnom Penh or Kampot, generally staying in the 15 - 25 C range. On a clear day, there are stunning views down into the valley, Kampot town scenery, coastline of Kampot and Sihanouk Ville. The main attraction in Bokor National Park is the old French hill station at 1.080m which can be visited as a day trip from Kampot or Sihanoukville.

Visitors must pay an entrance fee of 2.000 riel (0,5 USD) for motorbikes and 10.000 riel (2,5 USD) for a car, at the entrance to the park.
