   The 'mountain' in Pak Song
 

Early misty morning at the premisesRuns 'N Roses settled down on a piece of land in the village of Pak Song. We named it 'the mountain'.

This beautiful piece of land with many trees and forest on it, is surrounded by a river and when you are up on the mountain you have an astonishing view over the rainforest.

There is much more you can find on the mountain, like:

  • a restaurant,

  • gardens (flower, herbal, vegetable),

  • the river,

  • stables and horses,

  • places for children to do activities,

  • a massage area,

  • a sport field,

  • a play ground and much more.

    • The river

    Riverview

    The river flows around the mountain and from your room or bungalow it is very easy to go there.

    Being so close to your accommodation, the sound of the water can be heard very well.

    The river is for sure the perfect spot to relax and cool down after a hot day. Close to your bungalow and/or room you will find a nice place to sit: with your feet in the water!

    And alongside the river you will find numerous small beaches, sand as well as pebbles.

    The gardens

    Many different flowers in our gardens

    We have our own vegetable-, fruit-, herb- and flower-gardens, which supply us with food and spices for the kitchen and flowers for the rooms. The gardens are to be found in different areas on the mountain, near the restaurant, the bungalows and the rooms.

    There are several sitting areas in the flower gardens. If you walk around the mountain you can sit there and relax and enjoy the beautiful flowers and plants, as well as the birds and many butterflies.

    Sport fields

    Playing volleybal at the sportfield.

    Petanque, Thailand's national sport.Close to the river and your accommodation you will find a number of sport fields.

    Football, volleyball, basketball and so on can be played.

    Local people, guests and volunteers who live on the mountain play together. There is also a ping pong table as well as a petanque field.

    The stables and horses

    The mountain is inhabited by many people and even animals. Together with the Thai Child Development Foundation a number of projects are done with - international - volunteers as well as guests. One of these projects is done with horses. On the mountain you will find Pompom and Cartoon, the ponies of the foundation. They live in the stables you will find close to the entrance of the mountain. You are free to visit the stables anytime you want. Horse back riding lessons or trips in the area are a possibility too.

    Natural building project:; supported by Runs 'N Roses
    DOT network for Development Organisations Thailand. This website is not accessible yet.

    Runs 'N Roses is set up to support the Thai Child Development Foundation (TCDF) financially.

    Many foundations have a lot of "overhead", such as salaries for staff, office rent, supplies, daily life costs, transport to and from projects and so on. If we would not have set up the Runs 'N Roses organisation, 50% of the given donations to TCDF would be spent on things like that. By staying in one of the bungalows or guest rooms of Runs 'N Roses, you will help the Thai Child Development Foundation in a constructive and lasting way. This will benefit all children involved with the foundation.
