Khao Chaison Hot Spring

Khao Chaison Hot Springs (Bo Nam Ron Khao Chaison) is a natural geological wonder located at the foot of the majestic Khao Chaison mountain in Phatthalung Province. It is a popular destination for locals and travelers seeking wellness, relaxation, and a taste of Southern Thai nature.
Natural Therapeutic Waters
The hot springs are unique because the water stays at a consistent, comfortable temperature of approximately 60°C (140°F).
Mineral Wealth: The water is rich in minerals that are believed to have healing properties. Locals often visit to soothe muscle aches, improve blood circulation, and treat various skin conditions.
The "Magic" of the Mountain: According to local belief, the water is "sacred" because it flows from underneath the limestone mountain. There is a local legend that if you pray and make a loud noise (like clapping), the water bubbles will rise faster—though this is more of a fun local myth!
Activities and Facilities
The site has been developed into a well-maintained public park and spa facility:
Public Soaking Pools: There are shallow pools where visitors can sit and soak their feet for free. It is a great place to relax and chat with the friendly locals.
Private Bathrooms: For those who prefer privacy, there are private rooms with bathtubs where you can control the water temperature for a more intensive mineral soak.
Hydrotherapy: The park features a "Foot Reflexology" path where you can walk on smooth stones through warm water to massage your feet.
Massage Services: To complete the wellness experience, traditional Thai massages are often available nearby, provided by skilled local practitioners.
The Scenic Surroundings
The hot springs are located right next to Khao Chaison, a dramatic limestone mountain filled with caves.
Monkey Encounters: The area is home to many wild monkeys (macaques). While they are fun to watch, visitors are advised to keep a close eye on their belongings!
Cave Exploration: Near the hot springs is the "Cool Spring" (Nam Yen), a cave with a pool of ice-cold water that provides a sharp and refreshing contrast to the hot springs.
