Panoenthung was created by INFO
A proposal has been put forward to make additional parking areas in Kaeng Krachan National Park for visitors, that would lead one to believe that Panoenthung is "soon" to be opened to the public again. The first plans to reopen were put forward late last year but they had gone quiet - maybe because of the parks concentration being on the "encroachment" issue close the the Phetchaburi river. 

The proposal, which presumably would need "public" (i.e. the members of committee previously established to review road proposals) support involves proposed car parking areas for visitors at KM 9, 10, 27, 28, and 33.

Road has now been cleared and parking facilitated by clearing of sideways. Approval to open request has been submitted and barring any unforeseen hiccups it will be open next month to 4WD vehicles. No more information than this was available when asking.
