Lipa Noi - Viewpoint - 1-2 hours

The Lipa Noi Viewpoint Trek is a fairly strenuous walking tour of about 3.5 km that leads to a beautiful viewpoint looking out over the west coast of Koh Samui. 

We will start at an old half cement - half dirt road about 225 meter above sea level, that will lead us uphill to the viewpoint. A sometimes rather steep but steady climb of about 175 meter on a beautiful road leading through different lush green forests as well as plantations.

From the moment we start walking we will be rewarded with stunning views over the west side of the island and the 5 islands. On a clear day you can even see all the way to the main land. The higher we get the wider the view and even a glimps on the south of the island.

We advise to wear shoes for this hike to prevent any injuries. The sand can be very slippery when dry so you need a good grip.

The tour will take 1 up to 2 hours depending on our pace and the lengths of our rests.
