A complete waterfall leader for visiting the PAM BOK waterfall in Pai, Thailand. Everything you need to know, including arrival, entrance costs and what you expect.

PAM BOK Waterfall Pai is a small but worthwhile waterfall that is only a stone's throw away from the peaceful mountain town of Pai in Nordthailand.

The waterfall Pam Bok is a great waterfall for swimming, exploring or just to relax in the beautiful jungle gorge.

How to get to the PAM BOK waterfall Pai

The best way to get to the PAM BOK waterfall is to rent a scooter in Pai and drive 20 minutes to the parking lot in front of the waterfall.

The street is very attractive and leads past rice fields, jungle and traditional agricultural gardens on the way. If you prefer to take a day trip, then I recommend that you visit the bamboo bridge after a stop at the PAM BOK waterfall.

Do you need a private transfer from Chiang Mai to Pai? - Book in advance for less than $ 15!

PAM BOK Waterfall Entry fee

Entry to the PAM BOK waterfall costs 40 baht per person. Before 2019 the visit was free. This new fee may be due to the influx of tourism that PAI has received in recent years.

As soon as you arrive in the parking lot, there is a military officer who works for the national parks, who accepts your payment and hand over a paper receipt.

Pam BOK Waterfall Pai

Although it is not the largest or picturesque waterfall of Thailand, the PAM BOK waterfall is still a worthwhile visit to travelers in PAI. From the parking lot, go on a picturesque jungle path for 10 minutes before finally descending into a rocky gorge.

You will see the Pam BOK waterfall, which gently flows into a moderately deep pool within the round gorge. Depending on the conditions, it is possible to climb the right side of the gorge for a small, sneaky jump. However, you have to be careful because it is slippery and always remember to check the depth before jumping.

Although it is not as popular as some of the other waterfalls in Pai, the waterfall PAM BOK still gets a good proportion of pedestrian traffic from organized tours.

My favorite waterfall in Pai: Mae yen waterfall

Secret Hinterweg

Although there is not a lot of information online, I was told that I should look for a secret path that leads to some deeper pools on the back of the waterfall.

I could find it right away before going down the rocks to the foot of the gorge in front of the waterfall. Follow this path up and down and pay attention to the steep places. Soon you get back down to the summit of the Pam Bok waterfall, where you have some swimming holes and an entire river area for yourself! Alt = "Pam Bok Waterfall Cliff Jumping Spot">
