Itinerary description
Not very long (22 miles, 40 km return) but demanding bicycle ride. Extremely rewarding however; probably one of the nicest day out I had in Kanchanaburi combining cyclying and sightseeing of the waterfall. The road to the waterfall is a stunning dirt road with absolutely nothing except forest (no house, no car, no shop, nobody). Steep hills throughout the way. 1h+ hiking to go to the waterfall.
I would recommend leaving early in the morning with food and cycle to the waterfall. Get to the top and have your lunch, swim a little and head back. Evergreen forest along the road provides shade throughout the day.
Also possible to go with car but it MUST be a 4wd. Don't try to go with a normal car you won't make it. Also possible with moto. During the dry season I guess a small yamaha will make it, during rain season only dirt bike will reach the destination. I would not recommend going with only one moto: no help available on the road. The road is easy to follow.
No camera this day, sorry.
