There are concrete roads to HaadRin, but we have warned you that the roads are not in the best condition and unless you are a confident motorbike rider then don't attempt to get to HaadRin, as nearly all accidents involving motorcycles happen in this area. Our advice is to leave your motorbike at the seven eleven at Baan Tai and pay approx 50 Baht for a pickup over the hills to HaadRin. |
