Sjennon sees the World #5 - Visiting the Tho Li Su, the largest and highest Waterfall of Thailand
After one sleeping on a mat in a teeny weeny tent and being stung about 200 times by mosquitos, our next day arrived.
Today was the day I was looking most forward to! Finally, a waterfall! Like a really big one :D
Like I mentioned in the title, the Thi Lo Su waterfall is considered the largest and highest one in Thailand.
It stands 250 metres (820 ft) high and nearly 450 metres (1,480 ft) wide on the Mae Klong River, flowing down from Huai Klotho into the Umphang Wildlife Sanctuary in Tak Province in northwestern Thailand.
The waterfall has apparently never been surveyed, so the figures given are approximate. - Wikipedia
In order to see this beautiful piece of scenery, we were supposed to wake up around 7 AM for breakfast was served at 7:30 AM. Still feeling off and nauseated I couldn't eat much of the eggs they had prepared for that morning. After a little break, a 20 minute walk was awaiting us.
The best thing was that the camping's location was exactly where it needed to be. After exiting it through the back, a path was there leading us right to the waterfall.
Whilst walking on that stone path, you could sometimes peep some plants to see the magnificent top of the waterfall. Ofcourse, nothing beats the entire image.
After a short walk, you're end up on a platform with a beautiful view of the waterfall as shown in the first image. After that it's climbing time, because we do not stop until we're in it!
Some of us, even went jumping from one of them!
Caution: We had a guide tellings us exactly where we could jump from. There are rocks right below the waterfall and you might severly injure yourself if you do not have supervision. Do not go cliff jumping without someone with knowledge of the waterfall.

this is really amazing looking at the waterfall, surely everyone's heart feeling to be able to feel it ,, thanks @ sjennon has shared, I like you.
Yes it is for sure! It really had its own charm.
Very cool! I did something similar in Grenada last summer. We hiked to Seven Sisters waterfalls. The largest one at the end, we all jumped!
I like experiencing things like this. They make your travels more exciting. Waterfalls are a beautiful part of nature as well.
Here is a pic of me jumping...was about 40 ft drop!
Great photo! Looks fun!
Aah, that's crazy! I didn't have the balls or feel the need to go cliff jumping so I didn't hehe. The picture looks crazy cool though!
it is incredible views very want to visit to go there see the beauty of nature Thailand
It was quite incredible! And you should!
haha, I love how you had to blow the BEST image straight away! That made me chuckle......looks like an incredible place. Not sure I would have been brave enough to do the waterfall jump....not with bone crunching rocks beneath!
Well yes! I like to build my shit up a bit but steemit doesn't allow me :(
And exactly my thoughts! This part of the waterfall was about 6 meters 'only', but still. I don't think that's something that'll fit me.
That's beautiful!! Did you jump??
Aah I didn't. Maybe next waterfall!
What a a pleasure to waterffall inside me.
This looks like the garden of Eden, it's amazing all through my goodness
If garden of Eden looks like this, they live in effin paradise!
yes, get that waterfall life! :)
Soon, there will be the island life!
Awesome , did you jump ?
