Sri Nakharin National Park (Huay Mae
Khamin Waterfall)
This park covers 1,532 square-kilometres. Park headquarters are
105 kilometres from Kanchanaburi. Major park attractions include
the lovely 7- tiered Huay Mae Khamin Waterfall, boat trips on the scenic
reservoir, and encroaching deciduous forest and bamboo groves where
kingfishers, babblers and numerous other birds species are readily seen.
Larger, more elusive mammals within the park's remoter areas include
deer, elephants and tigers. Phra and Niramit Caves near the park headquarters
comprise other attractions. Bungalow accommodations are available. The
park's relative inaccessibility necessitates either a punishing 40-kilometre
drive along a dry weather track, and negotiable only by motorcycles,
pickup or 4-wheel-drive vehicles, or a 45-75-minute boat ride from the
Tha Kradan Pier 24 kilometres north of the Sri Nakharin Dam.
