The Enchanting Wang Tao Waterfall: A Hidden Gem in Thailand's Natural Tapestry

Nestled within the embrace of the Thap Lan National Park, the Wang Tao Waterfall unveils its captivating beauty in the Khon Buri district. This natural wonder serves as a vital link between the sprawling forests of Thap Lan, Wang Nam Khiao, Khon Buri, and Saeng Sang, seamlessly connecting with the majestic Khao Yai National Park.

The cascading waters of Wang Tao gracefully tumble over a series of rocky tiers, forming a mesmerizing spectacle. This pristine source feeds the Lam Chae Reservoir in Khon Buri, ultimately contributing to the mighty Mun River that originates in Nakhon Ratchasima and flows into the Mekong River in Ubon Ratchathani, aptly known as the "Three-Colored River."

The surrounding landscape boasts an abundance of natural treasures, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts. The #LamChaeDamBoatTrip and #AristitleTour offer unique opportunities to explore the hidden wonders of Wang Tao Waterfall, immersing oneself in the tranquility of this natural sanctuary.

Key Points:

• Located in Thap Lan National Park, Khon Buri district.
• Connects Thap Lan, Wang Nam Khiao, Khon Buri, Saeng Sang, and Khao Yai National Park.
• Source of the Lam Chae Reservoir and contributes to the Mun River.

The camping group is setting up for an event.

We boarded the officer's vehicle to reach the pier at Lam Chae Dam for our boat trip.

The roadside was lined with lush greenery.

We have arrived at Lam Chae Dam.

The harbor is teeming with boats waiting to ferry tourists.

One photo before boarding the ship.

The waves are very strong since I boarded the ship.

The boat can accommodate approximately 20 people. The round-trip fare is 1200 baht, which is very affordable when shared among several people.

The atmosphere at Lam Chae Dam

Tourist boats and local fishing vessels frequently crossed paths.

Sitting at the bow, enjoying the cool breeze.

After approximately one hour of sailing, we arrived at Kaeng Wang Tao Waterfall.

However, it is necessary to walk approximately 400 meters further to reach the waterfall itself.

"Just a short 400 meters, a leisurely stroll and you'll be there."

Keep taking pictures.

Giant creeper

No one passing by will miss taking a picture of this angle.

The path to the waterfall is here.

The descent is very steep, so please be careful. A hiker before us slipped on a rock and slid down, but fortunately, they were unharmed.

This is Kaeng Wang Tao Waterfall, an Unseen Korat destination.

Peaceful, shady, and cool

You can play in the water, but be careful in areas where the current is strong.

The water flows through the intricate rocks, creating a beautiful and unusual sight.

Can I stand in a cool pose for a photo? Haha

It was time to return, as it would soon be dark. The ascent was very steep, and the descent was even more difficult.

Surrounded by mountains and rivers, camping here would be a real treat.

Farewell, Kaeng Wang Tiao Waterfall. Until we meet again.

Everywhere you look is truly pleasing to the eye. The breeze is cool, the forest is green, and we don't want to go back at all. Haha.

Take a beautiful picture of the bow of the ship.

Cruise along and observe the daily lives of local fishermen as they go about their fishing activities.

Camping and fishing sounds like a lot of fun.

The sky is overcast, as if it is about to rain.

I have arrived at Tha Pae Gate.

Journey to Kaeng Wang Tiao

To reach Kaeng Wang Tiao, start from Korat city and follow the Ratchasima-Chok Chai route towards Chok Chai district. Continue for approximately 50 kilometers and take the Chok Chai-Khok Krachai route towards Lam Chae Dam. Travel to Tha Pa Pier at Ban Map Kradat, Khok Krachai sub-district, Chok Chai district, for another 18 kilometers. From there, take a raft across the Lam Chae reservoir. During the journey, enjoy the picturesque scenery, including the winding river, mountains, forests, and diverse wildlife, especially rare bird species. This area is renowned as a birdwatching paradise, considered one of the most beautiful in Thailand. Finally, hike into Thap Lan National Park and continue to Kaeng Wang Tiao.
