Ream National Park was established in 1993 by Prince Sihanouk and is characterized by its unique wetland features where inland rivers meet the sea. The park is home to over 200 fishing families who remain due to poverty and lack of resources to relocate, living without basic necessities. Within the park, there is a church school built by Korean donors, where all supplies depend entirely on donations. Currently, the park offers a single tour route: visitors board a boat at the pier and travel along the river for 1.5-2 hours to reach the river mouth. At the fishing village, visitors disembark and trek through the rainforest for about 40 minutes to reach an undeveloped beach. The park features diverse ecosystems including mangrove forests, tropical rainforests, and pristine beaches. Wildlife enthusiasts can spot various bird species, monkeys, and other tropical animals. The boat journey offers stunning views of the river estuary and surrounding wetlands. The rainforest trek provides an immersive experience in Cambodia's natural environment, with opportunities to observe unique flora and fauna. The secluded beach at the end of the trail offers a peaceful retreat with crystal-clear waters and untouched natural beauty.
Beautiful place with comfortable hotel. View so good and good experience like walk at a little jungle.
Great experiences after we boarded a boat trip in Ream through mangrove channels and forest with a bit of swimming in Koh Som Poch Beach with lunch and then saw a few lovely dolphins near Koh Thmei Island.
We explored this park by bike and it was just awesome. Lingam peak is defenetly worth to visit, bring some food with you, it is cool place to have picnic.
It was great! Make sure to come here before noon, it will be deserted and amazing but then around 11 the tourists buses came in. Take the western tourist line to go to the bridge to the Island. There's lots to explore here.
Don't come here. The whole national park has been taken over by a Chinese development company and it feels like walking/driving around a cheap theme park. Already at the front desk you're greeted with a big neon sign pushing foreigners to buy houses in the national park. The prestine jungle/nature everyone's taking about is nowhere to be found anymore. There's a part of the mangrove still accessible (ca 15 min boat ride, but nothing more). This place isn't worth the name "national park".
