Khao Phanom Bencha National Park

I started the nature trail going clockwise, as the information posts started there with #1. It was a tough,steep and long climb/scramble to the top where the trail split to go to the view point or down to the stream and waterfalls, after an easy start down, more difficult, steep terrain, but quite a few stretches with ropes to cling to. It was a chore, but I loved it and I'd definitely to it again, but with proper hiking gear and more water. I wouldn't attempt it during the rainy season.

It was really nice. The park is clean and tidy.
There are few beautiful waterfalls what is worth to climb up for. :) take swimmers and snack with you. We stayed there half day.

We will never forget this place.
The most generous, kind and good-hearted thai person we met is working here.We lost our key during the jungle trekking, and we tried finding it with no luck.
Mr.it helped us the whole time and made sure we had snacks and water, and he called for people to help us.we finally got a new key around 10pm.we tried to give Mr.it some money, but he said he only wants to help us and don't want anything in return.will definitely go back to see him and visit this place again.

Traveled there using my scooter. Entrance 100B and Scooter parking fee another 20B.

I did the jungle trail passing the waterfalls first. It was a noisy and sweaty but really exciting experience and totally worth it.

Khao Phanom Bencha was a really cool place to visit. I went twice and found a lot of interesting species. My main interest is fungi - and I discovered some pretty neat ones. The Huai To waterfall was just a short walk - heaps of leeches so look out. There are other side trails to explore as well - and I reckon the nature trail off across the stream to the right before starting the Huai To waterfall trail is a nice alternate route (depending on how much time you have).

Nice facilities and a cafe at the entrance. 100THB for foreigners and 20THB if you need to park a motorbike.

Finally a decent waterfall, there is one at the bottom and a small one on top. The views are breathtaking and you can take a swim to refresh yourself. There are also a lot of lizards on the hike. You do have to be a little bit careful going to the top because it is steep, wear shoes or sturdy sandals.

Very nice and beautiful Nationalpark! And absolutely worth going there.

The Nationalpark is super well maintained and the staff is also super friendly.

Entry is 100 THB per person and 20 THB for the scooter parking.

You have a long Natur trail hike or a short one to a few waterfalls:)

It's definitely worth going there :)

Super place to visit! Not so many turist. Quiet, you can swimm in the Waterfall! Awesome!

We visited this park in the beginning of May 2023. Entrance fee for foreigners is 100 baht per person + 20 baht for parking moto. So the place is great! Wild nature, waterfalls, viewpoints and hiking trail - everything was good. So we reached Wang Tewada waterfall, and then we went back, but we could explore more (see the map). Next time we will go to the top if the mountain 💪

Not only are the waterfalls glorious and the top pool beautiful to swim in but the rangers are so kind. We lost our car keys on the 3,5km nature trail. The rangers facilitated locksmith, sourced snacks for the family while we waited into the night and were simply just a pleasure, in particular ranger Eit.

Thank you so much for your kind service, we'll look forward to coming back and enjoying the spoils of this park often!

There was a fee for visitors and there were different charges between Thai and foreigner visitors. There were a parking lot. If you wanna experience waterfall trail this place is recommended. It is an easy hiking and climbing however, I do recommend people who fit enough as it has some part that you need to climb with rope. Overall experience was great. There are a lot of big tropical tree where you can see with the sound of the wild animal. There is some area that you can enjoy in the waterfall.

Don't do the trail if youre not an experienced climber. Some parts are a little dangerous. (Very wet rocks with no support, you have to cross a river on a rope) And despite having good shoes and socks and not entering water i came back with 15 leeches around my feet and some on my back. So check yourself and your partners! Super friendly staff, helped me clean off the blood and disinfect. Also there's no taxis or data there so arrange your taxi beforehand! Because you might not be able to text them when you're in the park

Great experience, something for everyone for not expensive fee (100bht for foreigners)

There are several options to choose.

You can go straight to waterfalls, which would take you max 20 minutes from the entrance.
There you can enjoy nice views and swim.
It is possible to move more difficult path up to the viewpoint from there.

You can do semi circle, go in via waterfalls way and go out by 2nd entrance.

You can also do the path we choose- go by nature walk which leads through jungle, up and down hills, for around 2km. It takes long time though. Good shoes appreciated. Then the path meets with waterfall way. We want to viewpoint and returned to waterfalls.

Highly recommended. Go until the end to the highest waterfall. We went there with my son 6yo, it’s amazing. Just view ppl there. Most of the ppl stay in the first waterfalls and don’t come up.

Loved this park! Great trails with some amazing swimming holes along the waterfall. I camped one night and really enjoyed the solitude, plus the surprisingly nice toilets.

Very nice park. It's worth a visit. One of the best waterfalls is located here. Three levels. You can take a swim.

Will kept up with a good restaurant. Food finished at 4pm sadly. I camped and had an enjoyable night. Home to Huay To waterfall very easy

Beautiful waterfall...easy to get to. No need to walk miles and miles for it. Absolutely wonderful but the view point isn't there anymore. Didnt see any signs otherwise 7 years ago i was lost in the nature trail so do not ignore the sign.

A cool and quiet place, heavily forested. A very well tended lawn greets you when you reach there and there are rest room facilities available although not great. You can trek through the forest and also hike along Rocky surfaces to reach the waterfalls, which falls in three stages. You can reach the top of the same but you will need to sweat it out a bit, scrambling along the rock face.
Altogether, a nice, compact, adventure for the novice.

Lovely waterfall after a shortish climb up the trail. Small entry fee to enter the national park. Near the entrance there is a coffee shop to buy refreshments.
