We went to view the waterfalls - both found on well signposted & surfaced paths. Bit of a scramble up to the side of the highest cascade. Good visitors centre, good toilet facilities & rather good 'canteen' for freshly cooked lunch (limited menu). More

After bicycling in the mid day heat to the park from Krabi I was too exhausted to really enjoy the park. Almost suffering heat stroke, it was late afternoon and I didnt think I had it in me to make it back before nighfall. So I asked the park attendants if there was a guest house near. They offered me... More

We rented two motorbikes and blazed the 22 km trip there. The park has full restaurant and all kinds of drinks. The park was clean and there was good signs. The hike displayed on the map could have been more explainatory by saying elevation gain and distance. (we guestimate approx 4km hike with 400m elevation) More

The track up the waterfall gets a little precarious near the top and is not well signed. The scenery is quite nice and it's well worth a visit for something different to the beach and pool. More

We have visited this park as we like to hike and explore. There are two hiking trails, one leads to the viewpoint and the other, Nature trail, makes a small loop through the thick woods to the waterfalls and pools. The trails can be overgrown, are not marked well but will get you to the upper pools. There are almost... More

make sure and make the trip to see the Huay-To waterfall located inside the Khao Phanom Bencha National park 35km from Ao Nang. There is a path at first that changes into a trial leading to all 11 tiers of the waterfall. IT IS BREATH TAKING! The trail is fairly steep and uneven (so were good hiking sneakers) and its... More

The National Park is 21km from Krabi. The park head quarters, with manicured lawns, looks like a botanical garden. There is a well maintained path with concreted steps to the waterfalls. On the way there is a large board mapping out the points of interest on a '2km Nature Walk' which is an alternative route to the falls, off to... More
