“A 6-meter-high scenic waterfall surrounded by shady forest and rock plains. Easily accessible with no long trekking required, ideal for family visits or nature lovers.”
Tat Ton Waterfall is located within Kaeng Tana National Park in Sirindhorn District, Ubon Ratchathani Province, about 90 kilometers from the city center. It is a medium-sized waterfall formed by the Tat Ton Stream cascading over a wide rocky terrace into a pool below, creating a stunning water curtain—especially during the rainy season when the flow is strongest and the width_ expands to around 50 meters.
The waterfall is approximately 6 meters high and perfect for swimming, relaxing, or enjoying a picnic. The surrounding area features spacious rock platforms and shady trees, offering a peaceful, scenic atmosphere. A short walk from the parking area leads directly to the waterfall, and the park also provides restrooms and basic visitor services.
Tat Ton's appeal lies in its clean water and serene environment, contrasting with more crowded or remote waterfalls. Nearby nature trails offer opportunities for light hiking and photography.
Other nearby attractions include Sirindhorn Dam, Chong Mek (the Thai–Lao border crossing), and the lower Mekong River. These can be easily combined into a half-day or full-day trip, making the area ideal for families, couples, and eco-tourists.
