Mae Kampong Waterfall

You can walk to this waterfall (starting point) from Mae Kampong Village, a bit of a hilly walk on a paved road but it is an easy walk. Once you arrive at the starting point of the trail leading to the waterfall(s), there is a mixture of well-maintained steps/tracks with a steep climb. The steps and tracks are wet/muddy and require appropriate shoes. You walk along the seven tiers which can be reached via a narrow path, leading into the jungle along the stream. The roaring sound of the cascading waterfall descending over a steep, rocky surface feels like being immersed in raw, untamed nature. The steps/track goes almost to the top of the waterfall, but I didn’t go to the end of the track as there were no proper steps. I returned back on a different track which run through the forest, a bit away but runs parallelly (almost) from the main track along waterfalls.

The waterfall is not too well managed like some others. There are human-constructed concrete stairs to higher levels. Still natural in many ways. Problems during my visit in mid Jan 2026 - road from Kiew Fin to the waterfall is under construction, you may be able to drive through if you are lucky, no official staff at the waterfall - not sure how to manage in case of emergency.

Nice waterfall in a forest context. My suggestion is to have someone bldriving you up there by car/motorbike, enjoy the sorroundings and come back to the Mae Kampong village walking. It's 2 kms with nice views, coffee bar to stop and don't forget the wooden temple.
