What Makes Mor Pang Waterfall Special?
Mor Pang Waterfall flows through a peaceful forest setting and is made up of three stages—each offering its own charm. Water streams over smooth, polished rocks surrounded by large trees, creating a peaceful environment. Around the falls, visitors will find a canopy of towering trees, smaller shrubs, and natural boulders that add to the atmosphere of untouched wilderness. Birdsong and the gentle roar of falling water create a serene backdrop. The entire setting is ideal for travelers seeking calm and seclusion. In total, the falls span around 50 meters in height, with individual stages ranging from 5 to 10 meters each.
