Mae Ya Waterfall, or Nam Tok Mae Ya, is one of the largest and most beautiful waterfalls in Chiang Mai. The fresh water splashes down over 30 tiers of rocks and boulders into small clear pools. Mae Ya Waterfall is a beautiful, fanning cascade, dropping down an ever-widening series of steps. The water tumbles down a 100 m cliff in a series of spectacular leaps and National Park officials estimate that the Mae Ya River plunges more than 250 m at this point. The main falls is about 40 meters high.
Located amidst the shady and cool forest settings. The short trek to reach the waterfalls makes this a great place for families to visit. Plenty of food and drink is available on site. At the bottom is a cool pool where children can swim and enjoy the pleasant picnic area. Mae Ya Waterfall is without a doubt, a photographic favorite for most visitors.Location Mae Ya Waterfall Thong Thind Chiang Mai 2027 Rd.
