Ubon Tour: Huai Luang Waterfall - Kaeng Kalao

This is a temple where everyone can relax their body and mind in peace, surrounded by trees and the essence of nature. Long rows of lush green trees stretch into the distance, while thick banyan branches spread and drape in natural beauty, like a curtain shielding against external chaos, allowing people to step into a tranquil and serene sanctuary, true to the name “Pa Sai Ngam.” Luang Por Chah gave the name “Wat Pa Sai Ngam, 10th Branch of Wat Nong Pah Pong” back when this monastery did not have a single large tree. From abandoned rice fields, it was revived into abundance once again through the perseverance and faith of many monks and Buddhist devotees.

We will then take you to visit Huai Luang Waterfall (Bak Teo Waterfall), located in the pristine forest of Phu Chong Na Yoi National Park. Cascading down a 45-meter cliff, it is considered the largest, tallest, and most beautiful waterfall in lower northeastern Thailand. It plunges down a steep cliff into a large pool and a rocky, sandy shore. Below, there is a pavilion offering scenic views.

Visit "Kaeng Kalao," a rocky stream that splits into 2 channels, creating a small islet in the middle of the stream. The national park has arranged the area as a resting spot, ideal for a picnic by the water. From Kaeng Kalao, there is a short nature trail to observe plant species leading up to Kaeng Son Sam Phan Pi. In the Kaeng Son Sam Phan Pi area, you can take a bamboo raft ride to admire the lush greenery along the canal, and you can contact the visitor center to request a guide officer and a bamboo raft.

and very private, or you can hike along the nature trail.

At the appropriate time, we take you on a drive out of the national park, stopping to relax and enjoy coffee at a cafe in Det Udom District, where we have great, chic cafes to recommend.

On the journey back to Warin Chamrap District, visit Wat Nong Pah Pong. This temple holds great significance as it was founded by Venerable Luang Pu Chah Subhaddo on March 8, 2497. Prior to that, Luang Pu Chah had undertaken tudong (dhutanga pilgrimage) to the area called “Dong Pa Pong,” located about 3 kilometers from Ban Ko, together with a group of disciples. He set up his meditation umbrella here. After exploring the interior, he found a large marsh densely covered with pong reeds—a large, fertile forest inhabited by wildlife. Visit the ubosot (ordination hall), Bodhinyana Stupa, bell tower, and Luang Pu Chah’s kuti (dwelling).

We take you to visit Wat Maha Wanaram, commonly known among locals as "Wat Pa Yai". It is an ancient and revered city temple of Ubon Ratchathani. Originally, it was merely an insight meditation monastery established around the time Ubon was founded in 2322. Pay respects to Phra Chao Yai In Plaeng, a sacred Buddha image deeply revered by the people of Ubon.
