The Cardamom Mountains, locally known as Krâvanh Mountains, are situated in southwest Cambodia and stretch into Thailand's eastern regions. This mountain range offers rugged and densely forested terrain that encompasses one of the largest and last unfragmented rainforests in Southeast Asia. It’s an ecologically significant area that contains numerous species of flora and fauna, some of which are endemic and threatened. Rivers and waterfalls adorn the landscape, making it a picturesque destination for eco-tourists. The Cardamoms are home to various indigenous communities who rely on the land for their livelihood, utilfilling traditional knowledge for sustainable living. Their cultural practices align with the conservation efforts that many NGOs work towards in the region. Illegal logging, poaching, and land encroachment remain challenges, prompting international and local entities to engage in the protection of this unique ecosystem. Visitors come for trekking, wildlife observation, and to experience remote natural beauty. Accessibility can be limited due to the terrain, but efforts have been made to improve infrastructure while balancing environmental protection.
