🏔️ Meet the Man with Cambodia’s “Highest Job”: Guiding Hikers to the Top of Aural Mountain

At 1,813 meters, Aural Mountain in Kampong Speu Province is Cambodia’s highest peak. For 51-year-old guide Sang Sao, climbing the mountain is more than an adventure—it is his livelihood and passion.

Beyond leading hikers safely to the summit, Sao encourages visitors to appreciate the beauty of the forest, the mist-covered landscapes, and the importance of protecting Cambodia’s natural resources. His work has earned him a strong reputation among travelers while helping generate income for the local community.
