Huay Kaew Waterfall has 2 separate waterfalls, Pha Ngerb and Wang Bua Baan. To have a good view of the falls and enjoy the refreshing and cool shade of the many trees you will have to stray a distance of about 100 metres from the main road in Chiang Mai. The white of racing water stands out dramatically against the deep green of the surrounding forest.
However, do check with locals how clean the falls are as during the dry season the sewage from the villages further up the mountain trickles down the falls. Best to sit with a beer or glass of wine at the end of a day and chill out, rather than go for a dip.
This is the closet falls to Chiang Mai town, being a mere 10 minutes drive from city center and a great place to relax with a picnic in Thailand.
