Pala-U Waterfall

น้ำตกป่าละอู

A multi-tiered waterfall in the southern part of Kaeng Krachan National Park. A forest trail climbs past it, and butterflies often gather along the way.

Pala-U Waterfall is located about 60 km west of Hua Hin, in the southern part of Kaeng Krachan National Park near the Myanmar border. The waterfall has more than a dozen tiers. Visitors follow a forest trail uphill and most stop at the fourth or fifth tier, where clear pools invite you to soak your feet or splash about. There are small fish in the pools, and at the end of the rainy season butterflies often gather in large numbers. The trail is slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. Foreign visitors must buy a national park ticket. The entrance closes relatively early in the afternoon, so it's best to visit in the morning.
