Recommended Posts

Posted

I would like to know were are some good swimming spots close to some nice waterfalls in chiangmai and is it accessable to drive there by car

Huay Kaew at the base of Doi Suthep. At the top of the main waterfall is a nice little swimming hole with a couple of mini waterfalls coming down into it.

Yup, I've posted pictures of them in the past, but I won't again. Do a search.

Huay Kaew is a little small for swimming and is quite dirty. I would suggest going out a little further to Mae Klah. That is quite lovely and has many different levels and opportunity for more privacy.

But for a quick jaunt Huay Kaew is ok, but I woudn't do much swimming there, maybe a little wading.

Mabey He's thinking of this one in Doi Inthanon National Park

"Mae Klang Waterfall

Mae Klang Waterfall is located in the east of the National Park, approximately 8 kilometers away from Chom Thong - Doi Inthanon Road, then make a left hand turn for 1 kilometer until reaching the Waterfall. This waterfall is very popular among Thai and foreigners who come to swim, picnic and relax. The rapid stream and waterfall spill over the area produce cool and pleasant for visitors "
