We wandered around the campsite some more before travelling on to another viewing spot that had a lot of coach parties and a very large waterfall. We had already decided not to stay the night.
The path down to the waterfall was very busy and we had to negotiate some very steep steps down to the bottom. Going down was going to be lot easier than going back up, I thought.
There were quite a lot of school parties down at the bottom and lots of local tourists and a few people swimming and paddling in the water.
With all these people and the noise they were making, it was unlikely that we would see any native animals.
The waterfall looked great against the blue sky and I took some more photos around the place, before tackling the stairs back up to the top.
Following the road back it was decided not to camp out and just return to Bangkok. There were two ways to go.
One way was to go back to the entrance and the other meant exiting the park on the southern side.
The exit on the southern side seemed much closer so we took the signed exit and followed the road to leave the park.
But you know there is always time to visit another waterfall only this time when we pulled off the road we didn’t fancy the long walk down and so just took a photo in front of the sign, in my book that counts.
Leaving Khao Yai National Park by the different exit meant that we had to navigate our way home using the street signs, which wasn’t as easy as it seemed.
To cut a long story short we ended up taking the wrong turn at some point and having a scenic drive via Chachoengsao.
It wasn’t all that far out of our way but it just seemed so at the time.
