Umphang is Thailand's most remote district, accessible only by the scenic but tortuous Route 1090. It borders the Karen Nationalist Union, a secessionist territory embroiled in a long-standing conflict with Myanmar. The area is home to several refugee camps under the administration of the Thai military.
