Central Thailand
Much smaller than its famous neighbour, Namtok Sarika, Nang Rong Waterfall is a series of small drops amidst a boulder-filled stream. The free admission makes this the most popular waterfall in the area – it's often chaotic on weekends. Inner tubes are available for a short float below the falls.
Be warned that swimming here in the rainy season can be dangerous due to the fast flow.
