I went today, my 6 yr old son free, my Thai 14 yr old 40 bht, my Thai 15 yr old and I (American with Thai ID) 90 bht and my foreigner cousin 270 bht. So foreigners Adults 3x more then Thai Adults. So you went all the way there, it’s a 2 1/2 hr drive from Chiang Mai, and for $5 difference you left? It’s amazing and well worth any of the various prices!

I drove the mountain road there and Highway 11 back. Back was a bit shorter in time and much easier, the windy mountain road is not for those who get car sick or aren't skilled driving difficult roads in Thailand.

Yes no problem be a great day trip

Around 30min to an hour depending on level of fitness. The climb is not too difficult. There are metal staircase along the way but the steps are uneven. Some steps are deformed, some are steep and will be slippery if wet. Just be careful and you will be alright.

It is about an hour north of Lampang. I rented a car from Lampang and drove myself. I'm not sure if there are any other means of transportation from Lampang.

Hi Arifin, I am not sure which part of Thailand you will be staying. Actually I rented a car for a day (900baht) in chiang mai. From chiang mai took almost 3hours to reach Wat Chaloem Prakiat. I used the tripadvisor's location to navigate to this place. Yeing-yeing

We travelled from Lampang to Wat Chaloem Phrachomklao Rachanuson by motor bike as that's how we were travelling at the time & asked the people where we were staying how to get there. Have been told that there are tour groups from Lampang or Chiang Mai that go there but not sure of there names. Another choice could be if there are a few of you you could hire taxi. If you get the change to go do it also make sure you have plenty of water with you when you start the climb as once you start climbing there is no where along the way to by water etc. I hope this helps a bit.
