Overview

    The Krabi Elephant Sanctuary is a shining example of ethical wildlife tourism in Thailand, providing tourists with an unparalleled opportunity to engage with elephants in a responsible and sustainable manner. Located in Krabi province's beautiful woods, this sanctuary offers a safe place for elephants rescued from the tourist and forestry sectors.

The Krabi Elephant Sanctuary's principal objective is to improve elephant welfare through ethical tourist practices. The sanctuary focuses on providing elephants with a natural habitat where they can thrive without being exploited or abused. Visitors are invited to learn about the significance of elephant conservation and the issues that these great animals confront.

Visitors to the Krabi Elephant Sanctuary may participate in a variety of activities that allow them to engage closely and respectfully with the elephants. These activities include feeding elephants, trekking with them through the bush, and seeing them wash and socialise in mud baths. The refuge prioritises education, giving information on elephant behaviour, biology, and conservation initiatives.

Unlike typical elephant camps, Krabi Elephant Sanctuary does not provide rides or entertainment. Instead, it concentrates on providing a natural and stress-free habitat for the elephants. This strategy is consistent with worldwide norms for ethical wildlife tourism, ensuring that elephant care is prioritised.
