Phaeng Noi Waterfall, Waterfall in Than Sadet National Park, Ko Pha-ngan, Thailand.
Phaeng Noi Waterfall is a cascade in Than Sadet National Park on Ko Pha-ngan that drops across multiple granite formations into natural pools. The forest around it is thick with tropical vegetation that creates shade and keeps the area cool.
The waterfall was shaped by geological processes over thousands of years as water carved through granite bedrock. Local people have used this spot as a meeting place since the first settlements appeared on the island.
Local residents maintain the tradition of collecting herbs and plants near the waterfall for traditional Thai medicine preparations.
A marked trail from the park entrance leads to the site and is easy to walk. Water flow is strongest during the monsoon season from July through September when rainfall is regular.
A network of trails connects this spot to Dom Sila viewpoint, where you can see across the Gulf of Thailand to distant islands. This link allows visitors to experience both the waterfall and the panoramic views on one trip.
