Khao Phanom Bencha National Park (Huay To Waterfall)
อุทยานแห่งชาติเขาพนมเบญจา
The national park home to Krabi's highest peak. The eleven-tiered Huay To Waterfall tumbles through tropical rainforest, making it a great place to cool off and splash around.
Khao Phanom Bencha National Park takes its name from Krabi's highest peak, at about 1,397 metres. It covers extensive lowland tropical rainforest, home to hornbills, gibbons and other species. Most visitors head for Huay To Waterfall near the park entrance. It has 11 tiers, and a 10 to 20 minute walk from the entrance brings you to the lower pools, where you can paddle around. Other attractions include Huay Sadeh Waterfall and Khao Pheung Cave. The entry fee is about 200 baht for foreign visitors. The park is about 30 minutes by car from Krabi Town, and you'll need to charter a vehicle or drive yourself.
