| Erawan
National Park
The national park is 65 kilometers from
Kanchanaburi along Route 3199. The park, covering 550-square-
kilometers, is the site of the seven-tiered Namtok Erawan, one of Thailands
loveliest waterfalls. The
second tier has a pool, which is ideal for swimming and is particularly
picturesque. However, the most
popular activity in the park is trekking. Bungalow accommodations and
camping facilities and a daytime
food market are available.
Visitors
may take a bus departing from the Kanchanaburi Bus Terminal to the waterfall
every 50 minutes
from 8 a.m. to 5.20 p.m. The journey takes 1.5 hours.
