“The waterfall has a stronger flow than Pha Lat, with a low concave hill forming a channel for water to shoot through. It is located in the park’s main camping area, which offers toilets and showers, allowing visitors to stay close to the water and forest scenery.”
Lan Lieng Ma Waterfall is one of the connected waterfalls along Lan Sang Stream, situated just above Pha Lat Waterfall. It is often considered the park’s third waterfall (counting from Pha Lat).
Waterfall Features:
The waterfall flows over a low hill with a narrow gap of about 6 meters. The water is forced through the rocks, creating a strong and visually striking flow compared to Pha Lat Waterfall. For safety reasons, swimming is not recommended. A wooden bridge allows visitors to cross the stream and enjoy the views safely.
