Chae Son National Park is located 75 km from Lampang and is famous for its natural hot springs with water reaching 82°C. At this temperature, eggs can be cooked – a perfectly cooked egg takes about 17 minutes. You can buy bamboo baskets containing eggs and place them directly into the water. This is common practice in Thai hot springs; the cooking time depends on the water temperature. The sight of the steaming springs in the morning is particularly popular. Visitors can also enjoy the natural thermal waters in small private bungalows with a mineral bath (50 THB). Just one kilometer away is the Chae Son Waterfall, a six-tiered waterfall.

Entrance fee: 200 THB per adult, 100 THB per child, and 30 THB per car. Getting there: A public bus runs from Lampang to Chae Son (departing from Talat Kao Road) from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
