Ban Nam Rad Headwaters Forest (Pa Ton Nam Ban Nam Rad)

Highlights & What to See

The main attraction of Ban Nam Rad Headwaters Forest is the natural emerald-blue spring. The water is exceptionally clear, allowing visitors to see straight to the sandy bottom. Natural limestone sediments prevent the water from becoming muddy, keeping it crystal clear at all times. The shallow depth makes it safe and enjoyable for both adults and children to swim. For those looking to explore further, paddle boats and swim rings are available for rent on-site.
