  • Krok E Dok Waterfall is an adventurous organised hike suitable for the the reasonably fit and mobile. It’s situated on the Western edge of Khao Yai National Park Thailand in Saraburi Province.
    If you’re looking for Thailand ideas then this place is a real Thailand hidden gem. The stunning views that Krok E Dok waterfall offers have to be earned. You will hike through the Thai jungle crossing rivers while ascending a mountain until you reach the beautiful upper levels of the waterfall.
    It’s the adventurous persons Erawan Waterfall!
    Myself and ‪@baldybrian‬ attempted this hike once before and failed.

    Karl - ANOTHER beautiful place you have gone above and beyond to show us.
    Thanks for heading up there to showcase a stunning 'hidden' gem which but for your intervention I would know nothing about.
    Glad once more that you have done the climb so I do not have to - I probably couldn't to be true.
    Exhausted just watching...

    The falls are fantastic, beautiful, thank you for sharing the trip with us. What was equally amazing was that young guide of yours, she was scooting up those hills like she was walking down soi 7.

    Remember that first hike up there, and the swim in pool at lower level. Probably worth the guided tour as the falls are in higher flood state, and more spectacular now.

    • @karlsthailand
      @karlsthailand  2 роки тому

      It’s spectacular Chris but IMO much better tackled in a group, there’s just too many dangerous points on the route up there

    For that hike, I would be wearing long pants with 10" Matterhorn military boots with Sierra Vibram soles, and my Outdoor Research Goretex gators. Darn tough wool mountaineering socks with a WigWam sock-liner too. I may have used my Kahtoola Microspikes as well. For sure my Black Diamond big gun harness would be worn so I could clip-on to the guide ropes and cables for extra safety in certain areas. Lastly a stout Brazos walking stick would also be with me too to tripod my body position as needed. I cannot wait to trek with you guys one day soon.

    • @karlsthailand
      @karlsthailand  Рік тому +1

      You sound like a kit man. It is a pretty dodgy hike full of my most hated terrain…slippery wet rock. About 18 months ago we attempted the hike on our own and it nearly ended in disaster (I did post a video). Look forward to it and thanks
