This park covers 1,532 sq.kms. Park headquarters are 105 kilometers from Kanchanaburi. Major park attractions include the lovely 7- tiered Huay Mae Khamin Waterfall, boat trips on the scenic reservoir, and encroaching deciduous forest and bamboo groves where kingfishers, babblers and numerous other birds species are readily seen. Larger, more elusive mammals within the park's remoter areas include deer, elephants and tigers. Phra and Niramit Caves near the park headquarters comprise other attractions. Bungalow accommodations are available. The park's relative inaccessibility necessitates either a punishing 40-kilometre drive along a dry weather track, and negotiable only by motorcycles, pickup or 4-wheel-drive vehicles, or a 45-75-minute boat ride from the Tha Kradan Pier 24 kilometers north of the Sri Nakharin Dam.
