- TheLeongOhanaUnited States7,859 contributionsOur driver drove here after visiting Banteay Srei. We arrived quite early in the morning which was good as the weather warmed up.
The hike up was challenging in some areas. However, there were a couple of great spots for photos on the trek up. We did a great job powering up to the river and reached it in around half an hour.
When we arrived there was only one other group of three besides the two guards. It was great having the place to ourselves.
In and around the river were stone carvings of a “thousand” lingas, Hindu gods and animals. We were able to walk a little ways upstream before crossing over some rocks. So amazing to see these carvings especially those in the river bed.. Some have been broken up over time and a couple areas were roped off due to collapsing so take care.
We also descendedto see the small waterfall. From here we walked through a rock crevasse and returned to the hiking path for the return back to our car. By then more and larger groups were heading up.
Overall completed the round trip in less than two hours. Recommended if you want to see something different than just temples!Written January 20, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We went to the terrace to view it. The terrace was built for the Royal barge. Probably takes 15 minutes to viewWritten February 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

To swim and just take it lightly, the water is as it is but it is good to swim in
You can lie in a hammock with a cold drink and do nothing at all for a couple of hoursWritten June 2, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

A great place to wander along and people watch, there are plenty of refreshment and food stalls to enjoy as well as areas to rest. One great thing about this river is the bridges that cross the river. They are only short but picturesque and very photogenic.Written May 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
