Dong Hua Sao Protected Area
(3 days trekking, all seasons)



These 3 days trekking will give you an experience of the Tad Fane, one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Laos, with parallel streams of the Houay Bang Lieng River plunging down out of dense forest for more than 120 meters. Tad Fane is at the edge of the 1100-sq-km Dong Hua Sao National Protected Area, where the trekking trails are considered to be the best and perhaps the only way to get into the park. There are still some tigers but it is more likely to encounter monkeys, gigantic butterflies and, in the wet season, dozens of great hornbills who like to hang out at the bottom of the falls, than to see these big cats.

Itinerary:

Day 1:
Depart from Pakse office, we drive up to Ban Km 33 to start trekking, then head downhill about one and a half hours pass the bamboo forest to Bang Lieng River below the Tad Fane waterfalls, cross the local bridge and take a short swim to a beautiful spot to view Champassak, and nice waterfalls in the jungle. Lunch is served on the way. At 1,030 meters above sea level, it is a bit cooler here. Then we walk for another hour to the waterfalls close to our camp site and enjoy swimming there before dinner is served.
