Ayutthaya - Thawarat Bicycle Track

This bicycle tour has been designed to bring you from Ayutthaya to Ang Thong Province. The bicycle track is 105+ Km long and is paved all the way. Biking takes about 6-7 hours, but visiting all the Points of Interest will occupy you the whole day. The main target of this track is a visit to the large Buddha of Wat Muang and the reclining Buddha of Wat Khun Intra Pramun, so avoid losing too much time on the way visiting lesser important reference points.

A few highlights on this itinerary have been listed more for smoother navigation and referencing, although they may also appeal to many cyclists as points of interest. Individual cyclists can choose where to stop according to their tastes and time constraints.

Tips and Warnings

Bicycles can be rented in different locations on Soi 2 Naresuan Rd, which is the starting point of this tour. Bike rental costs 40-50 Baht (about $1.5) per day on average, which makes bike touring an inexpensive way to see the city. Ayutthaya’s terrain is mostly flat and easy to ride, but many streets and side roads are poorly marked, so use the map to simplify navigation.

Be cautious, as traffic in and around Ayutthaya is sometimes chaotic and dangerous. Motor vehicles often fail to see cyclists and pedestrians, so you must closely watch out for them. Motorcycles are a particularly hazardous cause of local accidents. Dogs and potholes can also be dangerous, especially in remote areas. The weather can be very hot, so drink plenty of fluids and wear sunblock. It is inadvisable to drive at night due to the lack of lighting and the occasional recklessness of motor traffic.

The theft of bicycles is uncommon in Ayutthaya, but backpacks and cameras have been stolen on rare occasions. It is best to keep valuables with you when visiting historical sites en route.
