Hin Tok (Thai: หินตก, in Thai pronounced as /hǐn tòk/) is a tambon (subdistrict) of Ron Phibun district, Nakhon Si Thammarat province, southern Thailand.
Its name "Hin Tok" literally translates to "rockfall" as rocks often fall from the cliffs in what is now Tham Nam.
The subdistrict was planted around 1932 with the first leader named Thap Wannasuk (ทับ วรรณสุข).[1]
