NATURAL BEAUTY OF KHLONG NARAI WATERFALL

Besides the well-known Namtok Phlio Waterfall in Chanthaburi Province, Khlong Narai Waterfall is nearby. It is a must-visit for a trip to chill because of its natural beauty, and this waterfall area used to be the site of an ancient city as well.

Khlong Narai Waterfall is a place to visit in the middle of nature. It is a fantastic spot for relaxing and sniffing nature. Most importantly, it is easy to travel, not far from the city and not far from the flutter waterfall as well.

In addition to having a waterfall to visit, there are also lodges and tent sites available here. You can sleep while listening to the sound of water as the sound of nature is up close. The surroundings will be quiet and suitable for sleeping and resting.

The headwaters of Khlong Narai Waterfall come from the Khao Sa Bap Forest. The beauty of this waterfall is that it is a medium-sized stream that flows from a cliff over 25 meters high. The water is clear and runs all year round.

Khlong Narai is one of the waterfalls of Chanthaburi that has been of considerable historical importance for a long time. In the past, this area used to be the site of a castle fort and Chum Pot, which King Rama IV built in the middle of a stream as a memorial. But now, only the traces are left because it was blown away by the flood in the year 1974.

Trivia!

Khlong Narai Waterfall is one of the 8 sacred water sources in holy water ceremonies.

Khlong Narai Waterfall (or Khao Sa Bap Waterfall) is a medium-sized waterfall that runs all year round. The stream flows down from the mountain peak, through caves, high cliffs, and crevices of large and small rocks, into a basin. The lower areas are often called "basins," such as reserve basins, Amon basins, shrines, and sanctuaries.

To walk up to the upper waterfall, you should inquire from the staff in advance. There may be a guide to lead up to the waterfall. The path to the top leads through the sparse bamboo forest. Both sides of the walkway are covered with trees. You have a distance of about 2.5 kilometers to reach the Khlong Narai Waterfall. Next to the Khlong Narai are the Klang and some other impressive waterfalls."
