About this audio guide
This guide to Dragon's Crest, the Ngon Nak Nature Trail in Krabi, follows the local legend of a resting naga whose body shaped Tubkaek Beach and whose head became the ridge you are climbing. You'll hear about the four-kilometer scramble up loose rock and fixed ropes, the seasonal waterfall at Pha Nam Yod, and the wildlife that crashes through the canopy along the way. It ends with a practical tip: carry enough water, since the mountain offers only one uncertain source.
