Pranburi Forest Park

Pranburi Forest Park is a protected mangrove forest at the mouth of the Pran Buri River in Pak Nam Pran, Pran Buri District, Prachuap Khiri Khan. Established in 1982 to conserve coastal mangroves, it features an elevated wooden boardwalk through dense mangrove forest, an observation tower and estuary views. It is notable for its biodiversity, reforestation history and educational role in mangrove conservation.

Visitors can expect a tranquil mangrove forest with a well-maintained elevated wooden boardwalk of about 1 km looping through dense mangroves along the Pran Buri River estuary. The trail includes interpretive signs, shaded rest pavilions and an observation tower overlooking the river mouth and coastline. The environment is quiet and natural, suitable for walking, nature observation and photography. A small visitor centre and parking area are at the entrance.
