Koh Chang Elephant Trekking

Ban Kwan Chang Elephant Camp is located on the islands of Koh Chang in the northern forests. The Elephant Camp is a sanctuary for elephants which live there. Ban Kwan Chang currently have about 10 Elephants of varying ages and personalities.

Visiting the Elephant Camp you will have the chance to experience the life of the elephant in a natural environment.

Elephants are lead by a or elephant keeper or mahout. You will find out that there keepers show a deep devotion and respect to their elephants.

It becomes immediately obvious that an elephant on a trek is a happy elephant. This is because they have access to plants and food they would not normally have at the elephant camp.

You can expect to stop at numerous points during your trek of Koh Chang's northern jungle, so the elephants can feed on the foliage.
