Location - 10.3901052,99.1213977

The Buddha's Footprint at Wat Phutthabat is 23km south of Chumphon town. Take Highway 41 for 21.5km and turn at the U-turn. Once round the U-turn take the road 1.5km to the left and travel down this road for 1km. The track up to the temple is on the right. It is well signposted from the highway.

The track ends at a grass area where there a some small buildings. In the western corner you will find the steps up to the Buddha's Footprint.

It is about 100 meters up the steps to the area where the Buddha's Footprint is.

The footprint is on a large rock. Had trouble seeing the outline but with the help of the nearby picture you can make it out. 


You can venture further up the hill to where you find this statue.
There are gaps in the trees which allow you to see across the plantations to the sea.
