Picturesque and worthy of a visit in its own right, it is frequently visited as base of operations for exploring the many cultural, natural, and Historical attractions in the surrounding countryside.
About 190 km. from Kanchanaburi on Highway 323 (Thong Pha Phum-Sangkhla Buri), the national park is situated at Km. 40,
about 30 km. to Amphoe Sangkhla Buri.
Covering an area of 1,497 square meters in Thong Pha Phum and Sangkhla Buri districts, Khap Laem national park is a peaceful jungle sanctuary offering a wide selection of recreation activities. Namtok Kateng Cheng, a 23-level waterfall, is a popular leisure spot for visitors while study trails are also available for those who wish to witness a complex combination of tropical trees and wildlife animals. Beware to visit the waterfall during the rainy season, though.
