Cycling
There are lots of red dirt roads and Tracks around the area. I know most tracks within a 60k radius of Ban Dung. Hardly Mountain Biking in the literal sense but certainly off road biking . Be careful to carry enough water or some money to buy some at the many village shops. At first the road layouts are confusing as every village you come to the main road seems to take you direct to the local Temple or appears to end. After a little while you realise that the road suddenly detours around and carries on.
The Ban Dung Annual Road Race.
Pool and snooker
Pool and snooker
The Tiger Bar has a pool tables where it is easy to get a game at any time of the day.
There are also two Snooker clubs both located on the Phon Sung Road.
Play Area
For the Children there is an adventure playground in the park area directly behind the bus station.
Fishing
Fishing is allowed in the Rivers but beware of fishing in the resevoirs the local villagers tend to think that these are their own personal property and do not like strangers taking “their” fish. Thais do not fish as a sport only for eating and don’t understand that we sometimes fish just for fun.
Tennis & Basketball
Tennis & Basketball
There are Tennis & Baseball courts located in the Sports complex
Football
There is a football field with a running track located around it in the main sports complex. Ban Dung also has its own football team that competes in the local league.
Global House
There is a New Global House going to be Built in Ban Dung on the Salt road in the vicinity of Ban Dung Yai. Although construction has not yet started I believe the site has already been Prepared; No News on when it will be Open. This is yet another example of the expanding importance of Ban Dung – especially in view of its forthcoming connectivity to the express Highway system.( See previous Article)
