Temple where?

There is a big temple set high on a hill. You can see it from Koa Takiab and from the petchakasem road going past GDL pools. How do you access it? I have tried several ways and always end up seemingly nowhere. That said if anyone has been, is it worth it?

I've been there and it's absolutely worthwhile to walk there.
The road is (if I rembember correct), 2-300 meters past the GDL shop.
The gate look kinda private, but it's there.
You can drive up to the temple itself but then you have to walk a couple of hundred meters up to the viewpoint.
It's a beautiful view from there.

Yes, it's a nice little temple. A friend's husband used to go there as a retreat. I also think we held my Dad's 100-day (funeral) ceremony there. Isn't there a grey (possibly stone) archway with Thai writing on it at the entrance, Norseman? Quite easy to miss.
