Hello everyone, today we are going on another local trip. This time, we plan to spend half a day hiking to Pha Nam Yot Waterfall in Phetchaburi Province. Let me tell you that this place was once used as a filming location for a commercial featuring a Kinnari. Let's see how beautiful this place is.
From our previous trip to the Pha Nam Yot Reservoir, we discovered the Pha Nam Yot Waterfall. We contacted the village headman of Ban Pha Nam Yot to arrange a visit. We agreed on a date and time to meet at the designated location at 8:00 AM.
Upon our departure, we left Phetchaburi city at 7:00 AM, aiming to reach the Pha Nam Yot Reservoir by 8:00 AM. However, we mistakenly believed that the Pha Nam Yot Reservoir and the Pha Nam Yot Waterfall were the same location. This misunderstanding led us to contact someone for directions to the Pha Nam Yot Waterfall, which was significantly further away than we initially anticipated. This unexpected turn of events added an element of excitement to our journey, as we embarked on a longer trip due to our initial confusion and unfamiliarity with the area.
We stopped the car to ask for directions, called our guide periodically, and kept in touch with our friend who was coming by car.
We are currently taking a break at the soybean milk shop in front of the entrance to the Chang Hua Man Project, waiting for two more companions to join us.
As we continued riding, we came across the entrance to Wat Hub Chalard. We turned in.
The scenic views of the mountains and reservoir along the way were breathtaking.
We finally met up with Guide and followed him on our motorbikes to Pha Nam Yot Waterfall.
Vehicles, including cars and motorcycles, are permitted on this road. However, when the road narrows, we must park our vehicles and continue on foot.
We began our trek around 10:00 AM. The entrance was densely covered with ferns and grass. It is recommended to wear long pants for this hike.
This is a forest that is easy to walk through. There is a long elephant path with elephant footprints. The path is not very overgrown, but it is still advisable to have a guide. There are many岔路口, and a guide can provide peace of mind and knowledge.
This is the daughter of Mr. Guide. She is now a little guide girl for us. She is currently catching shrimp. ><
This is a net mushroom, a type of mushroom we have never seen before. It is very beautiful, but the smell is not very pleasant.
Let's continue walking. The forest here is easy to walk through, cool and very comfortable. We haven't even gotten tired yet, and we're already there!
The blurry object in the center is a butterfly.
We walked 1.5 kilometers in 45 minutes, arriving at 10:45 AM.
The waterfall flows continuously throughout the year, but for the best view of the cascading water, it is recommended to visit during the rainy season when the water is abundant and forms a curtain-like cascade as seen in advertisements. If you are unsure about the journey or the water conditions, you can contact the village headman for assistance. They will be happy to help.
The water here at the waterfall's base is deceptively deep, reaching over one's head. Playing in this area requires skill and caution. Interestingly, there are many friendly catfish that will nibble at you while you swim. Additionally, the area is home to the ancient giant barb, a fascinating fish species.
Act like a Kinnari. 5555
This forest area is home to a significant population of beautiful butterflies. As evidenced by the numerous photographs and videos, butterflies frequently flutter and display themselves in this location.
After we relaxed, played in the water, and took pictures, it was time to say goodbye to the waterfall, the fish, and the butterflies.
We began our hike from Pha Nam Yot at 12:30 PM and arrived at the exit at 1:15 PM, taking 45 minutes as before.
However, the fun didn't stop there. During the trip, our car ran out of gas. 5555 There must always be an event. Last time, the car fell over and the camera broke. This time, we ran out of gas. We had to walk on a road with no houses, just asphalt roads and forests with ponds at a considerable distance. Then a young man on a white horse with a red cloak came to help us push our car to the nearest gas station.
The feeling at that moment was like, "Whew, I survived!" Thank you so much, little one. I arrived home safely at 2:00 PM.
Let's take a look at the correct information for this trip to avoid making the same mistakes as we did. 5555
