We visited the park specifically to see the waterfall of the same name. About a 40 km drive from town, the last 20 of which is through the park and some decent sized hills. From the end of the road it is a further two kilometre walk to the waterfall. It is well worth it – the falls themselves drop several hundred metres down a cliff face in a long, thin stream – but be warned, it is not for the faint-hearted or those out of shape. The track winds along the stream that flows from the bottom of the falls, crossing it in several places (some on bridges made of sawn branches, once on a large fallen log, and in several places by simply walking through the water (cold!)). It also climbs up and down in many places – although not too badly – and is quite narrow at times. I enjoyed the walk but was beat at the end of it – the full 4 kilometre round trip took a good 3 hours.But for those up for the walk I’d recommend it.Be sure to wear sensible shoes and clothes, that you also don’t mind getting wet.This park, like all in Thailand, engages in reprehensible double pricing – an entry ticket for a foreigner is about 5 times that for a Thai. But for one Thai, one Australian and one car it still only cost Baht 150, so hardly excessive, unlike some other places!
Since most tourists are aiming to the more famous Khao Kho. This national park located not so far from Khao Kho is then abandoned from tourists to visit. The road inside is a bit run-down, normal car might not be able to climb to reach the waterfall entrance. The jungle walk is so beautiful to-die-for! The highlight is two waterfall, Song Nang waterfall and Tat Mok waterfall. To reach these waterfalls, you have to walk along the riverside (and sometimes, around 15-20 times, across the river) for nearly 2 kilometers from the entrance. Very hard work but worth for it. The waterfall is splendid. Since this national park is also the wildlife preserved area, you might have a chance to see wild animal during your trip here. I happen to see two hedgehogs, one civet, three deer and the gigantic python during my two days here. If you’re wildlife lover, don’t miss this place.
I notice that a lot of provincial national parks are not at popular as, for example Khao Yai National park. This park is looking a little run down, the roads are not well maintains so that the plant life is encroaching on the road. Buildings and public structures which were previously in good order are slowly falling apart. This is sad as the park itself is a beautiful place but probably as a consequence of the lack of popularity. Its main attractions are Waterfalls although they are set in beautiful valleys and mountains. The Tak Mok and Song Nang water falls are at the end of a jungle walk. You need decent footwear to take this walk and will be crossing the water course in numerous occasions too. It is well worth the walk although I should also warn that the path is not always clearly defined and the water crossings need some thought. It is worth the walk to get to the falls. The Song Nang falls are smaller of the two. You can cross the base of the falls and climb up one tier of them to get closer. The Tak Mok falls are the higher falls and require a further walk of about 10-15 minutes depending on how fit you are. There is a climb to them but again it is worth it; care should be taking coming back down – so take your time please. These are cliff falls and as you approach them expect to see lots of rainbow colours emanating from the wall. I was here in December so the rains had stopped but there was plenty of water running out of the hills. I would assume that going here during the dry season would mean that you would see little water from the falls and would only appreciate the jungle walk through. That said this park is beautiful. The drive through the park takes you through valleys and you climb up and over hills and descend back down through stunning scenery.
Great great great place! Wonder why there is not much visitor!!! The place is stunning! Quiet, well organized. There is no phone signal but who cares! Entrance fee 100 baht 30 for the car, camping 30 b per person. Dreams are beautiful as the sky at night! There is a natural pool by the campsite where you can swim and refresh yourself.
A beautiful drive up a long, steep and winding valley road to a tiny visitor centre and a parking area for the waterfall at the far end.It is wild scenery with next to no human activity except for the road, the far end of which isn’t even on Google maps.The waterfall parking is 7km from the visitor centre which is 21km from the start.The walk from the parking to the waterfall is 1.5 hours each way which we didn’t do.
This beautiful waterfall is quite near city but you have to check the travel season for tourists , allowing from 15 october to hike to the waterfall, else, close down for safety reason durong July to september. It’s oasis near the city with tall shady green trees ,where sunlight can not expose to ground, so rainy season is time for going up mountain for camping with lights of stars at night.
