This was a stop in our full day trip. I was a solo traveller but travelling with group on day trip.
Our stop here was 30 minutes and we were left to explore alone without our guide. The way up was different terrains, some parts slippy in flipflops, so trainers would have been ideal for this part of our day trip if I could have got a pair on.
There were several seats on way up to stop and rest if needed and a role to grab onto if you needed a helping hand.
There had been 2 quakes here in 2006 and 2011 both land splits marked. At the top you could follow a path down a steepish slope down into the split. Due to my ankle injury and being in flipflops I didn’t venture on this route and came down the way I came up. Would have like to see though.
I would take some water with you as very hot in afternoon sun.
There is no charge but donations are welcomed to keep it going.
There was a beautiful lake opposite this attraction that I would have walked around or sat at for a while but there was no time allowed for this on our day trip. So if your doing this on bikes then lake would be a nice stop to chill after.

This is a great little spot. The Land Split itself is incredible - especially walking through it at the floor level. But the best part was the hospitality of the people who run the attraction- it’s a gratuity only thing, but they bring snacks and drinks and want you to have more. It was very welcoming and we were happy to leave a tip.

Some would say there is nothing special about this place. It is what the name is: a land split when an earthquake occurred. It is, for me, a beautiful work of Mother Nature. You can go down on the split to see all the growth of plants and walk in the middle of it. The owner of the land even offers fruits and refreshments. No entrance fee, just a donation would do.

We visited the land split whilst visiting other attractions in the area. Nice to visit if passing as the other attractions are close by, on the same road but I certainly wouldn’t go out of my way to visit this. A bit disappointed to be honest. The entrance into the site has a counter/ drinks front which you will be offered a fresh cold drink before you leave. As there is no charge into the site, an honesty box or contribution box is set here. It’s up to the individual if they wish to leave a donation.
Fresh juice was very nice as was the gentleman that served the drinks. We left the equivalent to a few pounds £s as we felt that had this have been in the uk, there probably would have been an admission fee of at least £5 each!

I read about how a farmer’s land had “split” and so he had to move but how he opened it up as a tourist place to view the phenomenon.
Now I was expecting a relatively small split that didn’t really go far but I admit my incorrect assumptions. This is quite a hole - almost a small canyon, in fact you can walk down to the bottom and walk around it. I’d say it’s 50ft deep in places.
That’s it, simple as that. The lovely lady give you little snacks to try and some really good (and healthy?!) Roselle juice and you make a donation. We donated 40 bahts (£1) as it was a nice relaxed experience

We had a quick visit to the Land Split, that appeared as recently as in 2008 after an earthquake. Well, it's a land split - you can walk around/in it, takes about 15 minutes, and that's it...
It's free of charge, there's a drinks stall collecting donations from visitors.

No charge for visiting but donations accepted. This farmer turned entrepreneur when the farm he owned split about 20 meters wide and 10 meters deep during earthquakes in 2008/2011. Since much of his land is now unfarmable, he in his entrepreneurship turned a disaster into a tourist attraction. 20 minutes will all it take to walk the few paths. It’s ok but truthfully it’s forgettable.

Nothing special to see, land split said everything and is a 15 minutes walking into the eart. Nice landscape but I think the best thing is the little place outside that offer you a really nice juice for a donation. Also must try pumpkin chips that are really nice.

This was an interesting place to visit for an hour or so. You can walk around the site and see the split as well as the produce the farmer is growing.
It is done by donation and the farmer very kindly allows you to try some of his Roselle juice along with other products he makes or grows on the farm such as banana chips and tamarind.

It's okay we climbed up to the top and then down into the little split area. The only thing the place is known for is a local earthquake that split part of the area open next to a creek. It's a local curiosity that's it.

Do the dogs, in particular the puppy and it’s mother, have rabies/were they vaccinated? I visited a week ago and pet the puppy, and now am worried the mother’s saliva could have been on its back. Please let me know! Thank you!

To be infected by Rabies your skin will need to be punctured by an infected animal. In sure you'll be just fine.
