tangcoral Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) Which waterfalls in CM that I can experience "water pounding on my back" but at the same time safe for my kids to experience it? Also if it requires a short or long trekking. Edited October 25, 2013 by tangcoral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butterisbetter Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 At this time of year, I'm not sure if any waterfall is safe. We've had an awful lot of rain. Given the limitations on trekking, you might want to try the Mae Sa waterfall in Mae Rim. Parking is very convenient to the falls It's actually several waterfalls cascading down. If you don't have a thai driver's license or thai identity card, they charge you a lot more. Years ago it was 500 baht. But that price may have been lowered. Lots of restaurants in one of the parking lots, too. My favorite local place for water is Op Khan national park. You can definitely get the water pounding on your back experience upstream a bit and there are usually very few people there. You can park right beside the lower portion of the stream which is great for swimming. But again, at this time of year, there might be too much water for it to be safely enjoyed.

extazzy77 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I paid 100 Baht at Mae Sa waterfalls 2 month ago. For local Thai people they only charge 20 Baht. Don´t forget mosquito repellent, if you go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektrified Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Mae Sa is our favorite too. Pricing is odd there. They charge for the car as well as per person. We were there recently, one Thai, me with Thai DL, and one Japanese citizen - 260 Baht or thereabouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johpa Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 As an alternative try Tord Mork waterfall in tambon Mae Raem on the road that leads to Eagle Track, the "Hmong Resort", and eventually Mon Chaem. You will need to bring your own food and drink and, as it is in the national forest, the same charges apply as at Mae Sa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiftyTwo Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) Huay Keow waterfall, up Huay Keow road, just past the zoo, left and park at the small Buddha. Walk 100m down the path, past the shops and stalls, big waterfalls, shallow sandy pools for the kids to run around in. About waist deep (for an adult) in the very deepest part. Very shallow in most of the pools. Free Plenty of grass and trees for a picnic. Edited October 25, 2013 by FiftyTwo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
