Chang Phueak Subdistrict

About Chang Phueak Subdistrict

Chang Phueak (ช้างเผือก) is a subdistrict of Chanae District in Narathiwat, separate from the places of the same name in Chiang Mai and Roi Et. Its local development plan describes lowlands to the north and an extensive forested mountain landscape to the south, along the Malaysian boundary.

Communities include Ban Nam Won, Ban Ai Bue Tae and Ban Chang Phueak. The approach from the Chanae centre follows the local road network towards the villages; distances and access depend on the particular destination, not simply on reaching a central map point. Agriculture and village life sit alongside the upland forest setting.

Arrange any community or countryside visit with a local contact. The presence of forest and a border landscape does not establish a public hiking route or an international crossing. Confirm the road, permissions and weather conditions for the place you intend to reach, and use the district name จะแนะ to distinguish this Chang Phueak from northern Thailand.
