Very nice experience and great time spent here at this place. The waterfall is clean and agreeably located. However, I need to rate this place 4/5 because the price was too high for us since apart from one waterfall and beatiful nature, there is nothing else, what would dazzle us. Additionally, this park does not provide that much restaurants.
If you want to spend 1 hour somewhere, this is a great option, nevertheless, you need to take into account that if you are family, you will pay 200 THB for one adult, children below 10 are for 100 THB.
You have many options to swim in the pools located here, which were very refreshing. Overall well-spent time, suitable for families with kids. If you stop by, you will not regret to visit this place.

This is a bit off the beaten track. I went to the Gems Market, which was nice to see, but I expected more. This might be fun for people who are into jewelry. The city is quite large, there is a lot to see, such as a Catholic cathedral and the impressive rooms of "The waterfront people", a kind of Buddhist monastery. It is very difficult to get outside the city if you don't have a car. Very few people understand English, which makes it difficult to converse.

The waterfalls were beautiful in May. No food is allowed at the waterfalls. You could bath at Namtok Phlio waterfalls. We had lunch at the local restaurant near the main road. I have been there a few times. The best time is during rainy season. The national park is well organized. The parking is free. The entrance fee is free for Thai seniors.

Had a very nice time exploring this area. The park is clean and well maintained. (A bit surprised). The typical inflated price for foreigners but that’s expected in this beautiful country. It’s well worth the 200 baht for the entrance fee. (40 baht for locals).
We decided to do the Nature Trail. About 1.2 km hike around the waterfall. It was challenging at times, but overall not too bad. It took about 1 hour. Great jungle sounds and scenery though. But I would recommend the trail if you don’t have runners.
The waterfall was great. If you want you can walk up to the waterfall without doing the nature trail. It’s fun to dip your toes in the water and have the fish nibble on them. Peaceful, clean place to visit. Highly recommend.
Also a nice cafe to order some drinks after.

Although the waterfall and sites nearby are sure to be beautiful places to see and spend time at, I believe there is a small issue which should be addressed at the front gates. The difference in price at the entrance is absolutely astounding and should not be acceptable, surely it is unfair? In Thai the entrance for adults is a mere 40 baht, whereas in English the price stated is five times(!!!) that at 200 baht. If the latter is what is required in order to preserve and maintain the national park, so be it, but the difference is not appropriate and quite poor, to be honest. This must be improved otherwise it will not just be us who turned down the opportunity to explore the park and admire its beauty to its optimum.

15km south of Chanthaburi on the main highway south to Koh Chang and Trat, entry is about 1km from the main road and clearly signposted.
The 134 sq km park is covered with dense tropical rain forest and home to many species of wildlife. It is best known though for its waterfalls, and numerous safe swimming areas.
Many of the pools are full (and I mean full!) of sorobrook carp, you can buy green beans and hand-feed the fish, kids love it.
The first main waterfall is very easy to get to just a short walk from the park entrance, and has several pools for swimming downstream.

Bit of a trek from chanthaburi but worth the drive. The only problem is Thailand's racist policy of charging westerners 10 times the amount to enter a national park that the Thais pay, in this day and age finding the cost of something depends on the colour of ones skin is disturbing, to say the least.

What a delight! Most of Thailand’s national parts are usually well kept but this one is streets ahead. If you are looking you will see staff located around the park to make sure all is in order and offer information or help. Help is certainly needed when you are reading the information posts as the translation into English is the most bizarre I have seen. The park is named after a particular type of vine and you can see the vine in many areas. The well paved walk up to the waterfall which is only about 500 meters is broken with intermittent sights of the river and other attractions. This area was a favorite of Rama Vs wife Sunanta and the great king made memorials here including a pyramid which includes some of her ashes within, also a chedi (Alongkorn chedi pagoda). If you feel energetic there is a short 1.5km scenic route to walk and enjoy feeding the hordes of fish which I was told are named Pluang. The waterfall can be viewed from 2 places, 1st being from the chedi area and the other from the base, both give good photo opportunities. At a drop of 83 meters it is not small and well worth a visit and while there take a swim with the knowledge and comfort there is a member of staff overlooking things. Look out for a vine that the Thai’s call Monkey’s stair case, I’ll add a picture. Definitely a place of beauty.

Hallo, mein Mann und ich möchten gerne im August / September nach Thailand. Ein Bekannter sagte uns, dass der Park in der Regenzeit geschlossen hätte, ist das wirklich so? Wir wollen eine Rucksackreise machen, benötigt man für den Park ein Auto? Danke schon einmal für eure Antworten.
