About Aiyoeweng Sea of Mist
Aiyoeweng Sea of Mist is a mountain viewpoint in Aiyoeweng Subdistrict, Betong District, Yala Province, southern Thailand, known for its expansive sea of fog covering forested hills. Centered around the Aiyoeweng Skywalk, a glass-floored observation structure at about 620 meters elevation, it offers sunrise views over layered mountains. Developed as a community tourism attraction, it has become Betong's most visited natural landmark for mist and panorama viewing.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect an early-morning mountain viewpoint above a dense sea of mist that fills valleys between forested peaks. The main structure is the Aiyoeweng Skywalk, a 63-meter-long elevated walkway with a glass floor and viewing platforms extending from the hilltop. Surroundings are forested mountains with layered ridges. Visitors walk the skywalk, view sunrise, take photographs of the fog and panorama, and explore the hilltop plaza with shops and viewing areas.
