Transport in Phu Phrabat Historical Park - Lonely Planet Travel Information

Getting there & away

The park is 70km northwest of Udon Thani and Nong Khai, near the small town of Ban Pheu, and can be visited as a long day trip from either city. From Udon’s Rungsina Market it’s a 40B, 1½-hour bus ride; it’s 35B and two hours from Nong Khai. From Ban Pheu take a sǎwngthǎew (8B) to Ban Tiu, the village at the base of the hill, and then a motorcycle taxi or túk-túk the final 4km to the park itself. If you’re using public transport, you should plan on leaving the park by 3.30pm.
