Pa La U Waterfalls

This cascade is located on the south side of Kaeng Krachan National Park, 90 kilometres north of Pranburi.

The waterfall is a very popular place to visit; it has 16 steps and is one of the highest in Thailand. The few who make it to the top will be rewarded by breathtaking views over Thailand and towards Burma even though people usually make it to the third stage; it has a large, deep pool, the water is always cool and refreshing and there are plenty of large friendly fishes swimming in it.

The surrounding forest is over 1,000 years old and wildlife is everywhere, particularly the noisy gibbon community and many rare bird species as well.

The falls can be visited at any time of the year, but will be at their best between July and November, during and just after the rainy season.
