Phnom Kulen National Park lies approximately 50 kilometers north east of Siem reap and offers a varied range or sights and landscapes, perfect for a memorable day-trip into rural Cambodia. Considered one of the most scenic and historically significant locations in the area, Phnom Kulen Mountain is a sacred mountain of special religious significance to Hindus and Buddhists, who come to the mountain on pilgrimage. Our vintage jeeps allow you freedom to take a small, less travelled dirt roads up the mountain, avoiding the regular tourist traffic and giving you authentic view of the Cambodian countryside.
First you will stop at a small pagoda nestled on the top of the mountain. This secluded spot allows you to enjoy the beautiful scenery in peace and tranquility. Following the road into the national park allows us to arrive at the main sites in the afternoon, when many tourists are already on their way back to town. You will visit a beautifully carved reclining Buddha resting above Preah Ang Thom temple, before visiting the 1000 lingas, where an array of Hindu lingas are carved into the riverbed.
Your visit will conclude with one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Cambodia. At the base of the falls is a large pool where we can go for a refreshing swim.
Before we bid farewell to the majestic Phnom Kulen, prepare to conquer a breathtaking cliff! From its rugged edge, an epic panorama awaits: vast, untamed stretches of jungle, dramatic canyons plunging into the depths, and the majestic sweep of distant mountain ranges. It's a view that will truly ignite your adventurous spirit!
After a full and rewarding day, you will return by jeep through the countryside to Siem Reap arriving late afternoon or early evening.
