Seeking respite from the heat: A refreshing escape to Nang Rong Waterfall
While a trip to the beach might be too hot during this time, a refreshing escape to Nang Rong Waterfall near Bangkok offers a welcome respite from the scorching temperatures. Located in Nakhon Nayok province, the waterfall is easily accessible and requires minimal travel time, making it an ideal destination for a spontaneous afternoon getaway. Perfect for those seeking a cool dip in nature's embrace, Nang Rong Waterfall provides a refreshing escape from the city's heat.
The Nang Rong Waterfall is located in Hin Sung Subdistrict, approximately 20 kilometers from Nakhon Nayok city center. The waterfall is situated within the Khao Yai National Park and is of medium size, not particularly high. However, during the rainy season, the water flow from the Nang Rong Waterfall becomes very strong, so caution should be exercised when swimming.
Directions
- Starting from Mo Chit Bus Terminal (vans have moved from Victory Monument to Mo Chit 2)
*If you are traveling by car or personal motorcycle, please fill up your tank beforehand, as there are no gas stations on the way to the waterfall.
- Enter the area near the Din Daeng roundabout where you will find vans traveling from Bangkok to Nakhon Nayok. Purchase a ticket and head to Nang Rong Waterfall.
- Admission to Nang Rong Waterfall requires a site maintenance fee as follows:
Passenger car (including individuals) 150 baht
Small car (including passengers) 50 baht
Van (including passengers) 100 baht
10 baht for a motorcycle
5 baht per person
Along the way, we will witness breathtaking natural scenery, including vast rice fields, majestic mountains, and stunning skies.
The open highway with minimal traffic is a rare sight in Bangkok.
We have arrived at Nang Rong Waterfall in Nakhon Nayok Province! Upon entering, you'll encounter the first tier of the waterfall, where many people enjoy swimming. The area above serves as a picnic spot, where you can bring food to enjoy (however, bringing food down to the riverside is not permitted).
The sun is setting beautifully, but as the evening progresses, the air becomes increasingly cooler. This is due to the presence of the waterfall, which generates a cool breeze and is surrounded by abundant vegetation. The dense foliage creates a shaded environment, preventing the water from being exposed to direct sunlight, thus maintaining its refreshing coolness.
Let's continue walking along the path uphill to enjoy the view from above.
Upon reaching the summit, we are greeted with a breathtaking 360-degree panoramic vista.
Let's fully recharge our batteries before diving back into the heavy demands of the upcoming week. Sometimes, after a period of intense activity, taking a break to contemplate the flow of water and the gentle sounds of trees can be incredibly beneficial. Remember to take time to recharge your batteries.
