In the evening around 5-7pm the area is popular with locals who jog and walk around the lake for exercise. The loop around is 1km.
In the same area is Kathu Shooting range plus the new flying Hanuman zip line through the jungle.I haven't tried this yet but a friend of mine who has loved it. I will post more at a later date on Kathu as an adventure centre of Phuket because there are also ATV tours, two go-kart tracks, three golf courses and a driving range. Also nearby is Kathu waterfall and the Phuket Tin Mining museum.
Kathu is just 10 minutes drive from Patong beach or Phuket Town. We can arrange personalized activity tours of the area. Ask us for details.
