Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a remote forest waterfall accessible only by a strenuous 3-4 km hike through dense woodland and steep terrain. The waterfall has eight tiers cascading down a cliff face, with the upper tiers offering the most impressive views during the rainy season. The surroundings are undeveloped natural forest with streams, rocks and viewpoints. There are no built structures at the falls itself; the experience is focused on hiking, nature observation and photography. A local guide is required and the trailhead starts from Ban Krok E Dok village.
