Elephant Sanctuary in
Khaosok
Khao Sok Elephant Sanctuary is a safe haven where our elephants are retired from work and live in the harmony of the rainforest. We have a few tour options available and look forward to welcoming you to our little piece of heaven in the beautiful area of Khao Sok. Our elephants live in the shade of palm trees with our own freshwater river flowing through the property where they can swim and drink.
And where you can sit on our swings and enjoy observing the elephants amidst their natural habitat, doing what elephants do. We don’t allow bathing, but you will be able to feed and take lots of photos with the elephants. Bathing stresses the elephants out, and it is always against their will to be forced into the water for tourists to ‘wash’ them.
