The Huay Kaew Waterfalls are a very nice place to go for a day trip. If you are looking to enjoy the beauty of nature from the comfort of a path, this is one place to go.Please wear shoes (not flip-flops) to ensure your own safety, as the trails can be slippery and emergency services would take along time to reach you, should you fall. During my most recent trip there, a tourist (wearing flip-flops) slipped and fell some meters, breaking ribs and an arm. It took some time and effort to recover and bring the injured person to a hospital.Please also take care of the environment you are in, as the careless attitude of many tourists over the years has lead to the river becoming more and more polluted with time.
We had taken a songthaew to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, and on the way back to the old city, we requested to be dropped off at the Chiang Mai Zoo. From the zoo, it’s not a far walk (I’m sure you could ask to be dropped off closer). It’s a short trail to the waterfall, and the waterfall itself is really pretty. The rocks are a little slippery but not bad. Really enjoyed getting out of the city and worth the short trek out here. There were a lot of people but not too crowded. Leaving the waterfall, there were songthaews very close by. For two, it was 60B back to the old city.
We went during peak summer and there was only a trickle of water. But we walked around and went under some of the rocks. It should be a great place during rains.
We rode our scooter here from the Old City – it took around 20 minutes. It’s a short walk from where we parked to the Falls. Make sure you wear proper walking shoes as the path is rocky and rough in places.Sadly low rainfall means a lot less water. The Falls run into a series of pools.There’s several walking trails, although these a rocky and slippery following even a small amount of rain.This is a quiet place in nature and well worth a visit.
A good waterfall and really nice place for photos. Can even get in but only very small pools, for a better experience venture a bit further out via the trails which lead off from this waterfall.
The place is so nice and beautiful. I went there in the morning and I saw many butterflies and birds flying around.
The waterfall is lovely and easy to get to from the car park. That being said, I would only recommend it if you are already in the area for the zoo or the temple.
The tour of the waterfalls in this area (see my other reviews for the other two waterfalls) was one of our higlhights of our time in Chiangmai. The fact that this activity is free (apart from getting there) and is not rammed with tourists makes it an idyllic place to relax and enjoy a more ‘natural’ Thailand.To get there we caught a Grab to the Zoo, which was only around 80baht from the Holiday Inn Chiangmai (15 min journey), and walked. We went out of the entrance to the zoo, turned left, and then there is a small cut through down a small but paved road which has a sign, though it’s quite faded.I believe we were there during a drier time so the waterfall was easily accessible with a lot of bare rock and only a relatively small stream of water down the centre. Per the title, it was not busy at all with maybe 10 other people there. We also walked upstream and climbed part of the waterfall for some photos!After this we carried on to Wang Bua Ban waterfall which can be accessed via a small path and a steep climb. I would reccomend good footwear as there is a fair bit of walking over some tricky terrain in places.
Visited to make a stop off on our moped journey to Doi Suthep. Very small but we enjoyed climbing over the flat rocks and paddling our feet in the streams. Free to visit.
Located in Doi Suthep National Park, this is one of the easiest waterfalls to get to considering its size. The waterfall is only about 10 minutes walk from there. The drop is about 30 metres where the water eventually pools into a pond large enough for people to wade in and play, plenty of the locals do that. After you’ve seen enough, take a hike to the nature trail or take a hike further up to Wang Bua Ban Pond about 20 minutes climb.
