    Lovely walk and free. Little steep at times so elderly be aware. Not touristy which is the best thing! En route is a quaint coffee shop where you must stop by and sit. Don't miss it. The best coffee - called "suansin coffee house". Incredible presentation for $1!

    Pretty waterfall. Not very big. If you like walking and hiking, you'll enjoy your time. Cauze to see an actual waterfall , you should go up approx. 1 km. The path there is a bit steep, but i can't say it's dangerous. Just be careful when walking. Don't forget insect repellent, there are lot of different bugs there. And put on comfortable sport shoes.

    the place is ideal for those who are interested in spending time in the lap of nature. the area is abosultley virgin in terms of human interferance. when I went up the mountain, I was the only one doing so. I waited up for half an hour still no one. not even on way back. the place is full of birds and butterflies.also wild flowers of variety. the water is there, not much of a fall though. if you expect to see a great waterfall , you would be disheartened. but if you are a true nature lover , go for it. even the road to the waterfall entry point is very scenic

    UPDATE: Revised as of Oct, 29 2023. New bridges so the hike is back to normal - open and in great shape. Careful of slippery rocks. It also closes shortly after 4:00 PM instead of the stated 6:00 (welcome to Thailand). -- Easy drive to Park, nice facilities at the start. Small swimming area adjacent to parking lot. The hike itself is fairly short and the waterfall is small. But it is a nice hike with a few places that get a little tricky - fair warning for people who might have issues climbing over rocks.

    Beautiful hiking trail through the forest. As expected, not so much water in the dry season.

    The waterfall itself is not very impressive, the nature that is found is. The path is not prepared, you have to jump and avoid stones, I find it moderately dangerous, easy to twist an ankle or sprain.

    Not a very impressive waterfall, but most of its charm stems from the walking the trail. Good shoes are absolute must, as you will be braving 1 km of tree roots, lose stones, climbing boulders and sweating buckets. Unless you just decide to just sit down by the water on one of the boulders and eat your lunch. No crowds and no entrance fee.

    Just a little stream, don't expect Niagara falls... Dense trees and rocks along the way made the hike enjoyable even with slipper shoes. (40 mins to go for the 900meters path) Lot of ants and insect every where, don't forget a spray repelant.

    Pong Phra Bat Waterfall There is water all year long. But during the dry season, there will be little water. But we can come and escape the heat.

  • 4/5 Ismail E. 4 months ago on Google • 35 reviews
    A strenuous hike to the waterfall. While the hike and nature setting is beautiful, the waterfall was a bit disappointing. I would have imagined it bigger.

    (Translated by Google) If you feel like recovering the nature is perfectly fine, the waterfall is small, from entrance to the waterfall you have to run 900m high. (Original) Wer Lust hat, die Natur zu genesen, ist vollkommen in Ordnung, der Wasserfall ist klein, von Eingang bis zum Wasserfall muß man 900m hoch laufen.

    Nice small waterfall. Very easy access. A good paved road goes to the entrance of the park. There is a safe parking with security guards. Then one can walk just 100 m and kids can swim. But the water is a little dirty to swim. There is a nice easy trek, 800 m long, very well marked, along the small river bed. The water is running and the forest is beautiful. At the end of the trek, there is a small natural pool and small water falls. We were there around 1:00 PM, there was only one couple going down and, when we were leaving, one couple going up. It was not a very beautiful waterfall, but the forest was was quiet and the trek was pleasant

    A really nice little waterfall! Little trail but fun to climb! Especially if you have young ones as they could do it too! :)

  • 3/5 Tarm K. 3 months ago on Google New
    Visiting the waterfall in winter provided a serene experience, even though the water flow was minimal. The vibrant greenery of the surrounding trees and plants showcased the beauty of nature. Despite the season affecting the waterfall's intensity, the stunning and fresh landscape made the trip worthwhile, offering a peaceful and visually appealing environment.

  • 4/5 Alexander J. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice little spot to chill. Looked like a bunch of families were there too and swimming in the water. I'm not sure if there was much hiking which is why I went but I enjoyed sitting in the cool nature environment.

  • 5/5 craig j. 2 years ago on Google
    Plenty of water and had the place to ourselves around lunch. Quick dip in the pools and back down the path, recommended for more able bodies as the track is steep in places and crossing the creek over small bamboo bridges.

    It’s a long hike to the top, it’s ok the small waterfall is pretty.

  • 4/5 Theresa P. 1 year ago on Google
    A nice place to walk around. Waterfall is beautiful. Going up to the waterfall has a lot of stairs, and I wouldn't say it's easy.

  • 5/5 Richard G. 5 years ago on Google
    Lovely walk along the waterfall. Even in dry season there is a nice little stream. Good for a refresh once you arrive at the top. There are small pools where you can chill in. Worth the approx 1 km walk up the waterfall.

  • 3/5 Ed L. 2 years ago on Google
    Visited today 26/11/21. Small pretty park that is well maintained. Not sure that i got to the actual waterfall but where i ended up before turning around had a small shrine on the other side of the stream. Allow 30 mins each way.

  • 4/5 Stephen P. 6 years ago on Google
    Pretty and well cared for area. Waterfall is not spectacular at this time of the year (Nov) but maybe better closer to rains. Well worth a visit and climb to the top.

    (Translated by Google) Coming out from the hot spring at 16, almost 1700 hrs. And see the sign for Phrabat Waterfall, another five km., Turn left, go through the community along the way. There is a little steep when going up the waterfall office. Said that during the rainy season Strong waterfall is not used to rest. We said that the elder came alone. Just come to ask to stay and put up a tent to sleep In the morning, let's continue. His sister called to ask permission. He hurriedly brought the field bed to spread. Pitch a tent on the courtyard bed No worries about water entering the tent This single tent is expensive, it still seeps in. Especially in the corner of the tent Put a rain cover to cover the tent in case of rain, boil water, make coffee, eat and fill in Are you comfortable in your stomach? Then go into the tent before a lot of mosquitoes.

    Easy hike, very relaxing, plenty of space to find your own and take it all in for a couple of hours.

  • 5/5 Peter H. 4 years ago on Google
    The waterfall is at altitude 560m from sea level. There is some climbing involved to reach this place. The waterfall is not big but the pond water is refreshingly cold to wade and cool off after the climb. The dense tree leaves, rocks and tree roots along the way made the hike enjoyable. A perfect place for a leisurely hike.

    Well if you like nature then this place is great. The family and me walked up half way and the kids just wanted to play in the creek bed so that's as far as we made it. We took the back roads and some jungle trails in buggies from Chiang rai utv adventure tours which also made this a great day.

  • 4/5 Colin B. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a series of small waterfalls and rock pools as the water from the mountain finds it's way between boulders through the forest. The path following beside the stream requires some agility to cross bamboo bridges and to negotiate boulders and fallen trees. It's suitable for the infirm only as far as the first pool (if that) and certainly out of the question for wheelchairs. However, it is a peaceful and beautiful place with several spots where you can sit on the ground or a rock to enjoy the view, or even splash about in a pool.

  • 3/5 Bryan W. 4 years ago on Google
    It was the dry season so the waterfalls were very disappointing after a long hike.
