Emerald Pool

Emerald Pool – A Must-Visit Natural Experience (Go Early!) Emerald Pool is a beautiful natural attraction and definitely a must-visit for both kids and adults. My biggest recommendation: go early. The gates open at 8:30 AM, and visiting in the morning makes a huge difference. By afternoon, it becomes very hot and extremely crowded, which takes away from the overall experience. From the main gate, there are two walking routes to reach the Emerald Pool: 800 meters – shorter and quicker 1000 meters – slightly longer but far more scenic and beautiful 👉 I strongly recommend choosing the 1000-meter walk, as it offers a much nicer nature trail and a more enjoyable experience. Inside the Emerald Pool compound, there are three pools: Emerald Pool – the only pool where swimming or bathing is allowed Blue Pool and Crystal Pool – strictly for viewing and photography only (no swimming) The trail from Emerald Pool to Blue Pool feels like a jungle walk and is very pleasant, especially for nature lovers. The entire area is clean and well maintained. There are clean changing rooms available, so don’t forget to carry your swimming clothes. Important things to note: Entry fee: 200 THB per person Personal food is not allowed inside the premises There is one snack and drinks shop inside, but unfortunately, the owner was quite rude, which slightly affected the experience. Overall, Emerald Pool is a wonderful natural attraction and truly a must-visit, especially for families. Plan it early, take the scenic route, and enjoy the calm beauty before the crowds arrive. ⭐ Highly recommended for all age groups!

A very special experience! We visited the Emerald Pool and Blue Pool. Upon arrival you have to pay the entrance fee to the national park, then make your way through the jungle paths leading to the Emerald Pool and Blue Pool. Luckily we chose a day that wasn’t too crowded, we arrived around 1 pm and most of the crowds had been gone already. There is a small cafe at the Emerald Pool, which you can also swim in. Showers and toilets are available nearby. The Blue Pool is stunning, deep blue water (no, it’s not a filter in those pictures!) and right in the middle of the jungle. Be aware that for theue Pool you must take a short walk right through the jungle.

This is a very cool, but at times difficult and dangerous activity to do. Perfect for the adventurous at heart. Definitely need shoes and a strong Will to get to the Emerald lagoon, lots of vertical climbs using knotted ropes down cliff faces, as well as back up again. Enjoy.
