A few days ago I took a minibus to Soppong, which is basically the caving capital of the world. Ok, maybe not, but this area is home to some of the world’s most exquisite caves. This district has more than 200 caves, including 2 of Thailand’s largest (at 14 km and 8.4 km) and a good number with active streams inside.
I decided to stay at Cave Lodge which is 9 km out of town but near Tham Lod, one of the most popular caves in the area. The Lodge is owned by John Spies, an amazing photographer and cave enthusiast (investigating, discovering, and naming them for 30+ years) . He offers many different treks and adventures to explore the area so I knew I’d be in for a good time. Plus, the Lodge itself was a very accommodating place to stay.
