“Kaeng Saphue features large natural rock rapids with strong flowing water, ideal for swimming, rafting, and enjoying the natural beauty of the Mun River.”

Kaeng Saphue is located in the Mun River in Khong Chiam District, Ubon Ratchathani. It is a natural rock formation created by continuous water erosion, forming pools, whirlpools, and striking rock patterns that attract visitors. The rapids stretch several hundred meters, with alternating shallow and deep areas, making it suitable for swimming, rafting, and sightseeing.

The surrounding area consists of riverside forests and fertile grasslands, featuring a variety of trees such as Yang Na, Ironwood, Teng, and bamboo, which provide shade and a cool atmosphere. The ecosystem supports numerous water birds like ducks, cormorants, and gulls, as well as small animals such as squirrels and native aquatic life.

Local communities use Kaeng Saphue as a natural resource area for fishing and gathering freshwater mussels, and it also hosts local water-related traditions and cultural activities. This makes the site not only a natural tourist attraction but also a center for community culture and lifestyle.

Visitors can stroll along the rocks, have picnics, take photos, or swim safely during the dry season. The area also provides space for camping, recreational activities, and rafting during the high-water season.

Kaeng Saphue is therefore an important natural tourist destination in Ubon Ratchathani, attracting nature lovers, adventurers, and those seeking peace by the river and its scenic surroundings.
