OUR FRONT DESK MANAGER’S FAVOURITE PLACE TO HIKESet in lush jungle surrounding it, the Na Muang Waterfalls are easily accessible just off the main ring road. Visitors with a reasonable level of fitness expertise will be able to reach the falls on foot. The trails can be slippery in places, so be sure to wear sturdy footwear. The flowing water forms several natural pools that are perfect for a cool dip. The waterfalls are at their best during the water months of September, October and November.

THE BEST WAY TO EXPERIENCE BOXING FROM OUR GENERAL MANAGERMuay Thai, the ancient art of kickboxing, is Thailand’s national sport. For an exciting evening head to a local match. The pre-fight ritual dance is fascinating while the boxing itself considered to be one of the most lethal sports in the world (and completely different from western-style boxing). Fights are held at Petchbuncha Stadium and Chaweng Boxing Stadium.
