Khao Chamao is the name of a lush 8-level waterfall in Rayong, a place that adventurous hikers won’t want to miss. Other than its eight levels, the waterfall is known to offer calming and stress-relieving sight and sound.

Just a tip, we recommend you get your body ready before visiting Khao Chamao National Park, especially if you want to enjoy a long trek. The distance to the last level of the waterfall is about 1,660 metres. Also, make sure you come here early in the morning or afternoon, so you have more time for your exploration before the sky turns dark.

If you feel tired, you can rest by the water or take a refreshing dip in the water. Please make sure you look out for signs, as some areas don’t allow visitors to play in the water due to safety reasons.
