A reservoir with pines round it, and mist on it at six in the morning.
Nutchana · CC BY-SA 4.0What it is
A royal-project reservoir in the hills north-west of Mae Hong Son, reached by the same road system as Ban Rak Thai.
The long version
Inference — this is a dawn place and it is only a dawn place. The mist that makes it worth the ride is a cool-season, early-morning, still-air phenomenon, and at ten in the morning it is a reservoir with pine trees.
Which has a scheduling consequence that runs through this whole site: it requires sleeping within reach of it, which means two nights in Mae Hong Son, which means the four-day loop is really a five-day loop if you want the things Mae Hong Son is actually known for.
Not on this disk: current access arrangements, charges or camping rules.
