Khao Kho
is made up of mountain ranges to northwest of town about
1,174 metres above mean sea level covered in the main by
deciduous plants. Very cold during November-February, it
once was the base room which communist insurgents conducted
their struggles against the authorities during 1968-1982.
Today it is accessible via two routes; off Highway No. 12
(Phitsanulok - Lom Sak) at Ban Camp Son with a further
distance of 30 kilometres of off highway No. 21 at Ban Na
Ngua, about 13 kilometres from town with a further distance
of 30 kilometres. Both routes wind through considerably
steep terrain. Interesting places include various viewing
points, remains of communist bases and buildings, war
memorial, arms museum, a Chedi containing Holy Relic and the
Si Dit waterfall.
