This guide to the Ang Ka nature trail near the summit of Doi Inthanon, Thailand's highest peak, explains why the boardwalk underfoot feels soft and spongy: centuries of sphagnum moss built into a rare peat bog more common in the Scottish highlands than a Thai mountaintop. It traces how the mountain earned its name from King Inthawichayanon, an old Lanna ruler who feared for the vanishing northern forests and asked to be laid to rest here. Walk slowly through the moss-draped trees and listen for movement in the cloud around you.
