Ban Nahin

A 7 km underground river that can be navigated by motorized long boat. It must be one of the main reasons for the many guest houses in Ban Nahin. Konglor can be reached by driving your motorbike or sharing a songthaew with fellow travellers. Songthaews leave the village for the Cave at 10:00 and 14:30 every day, but you will not be able to return from there if you take the afternoon songthaew. Bring your torch. In Konglor 110,000 kip is the price for a return boat trip, maximum 3 persons to a boat. The road to Konglor leads through a peaceful valley with tobacco fields. There are various guest houses near Konglor and some good homestays in the village about 1 km from the cave itself (50,000 kip per person with breakfast and dinner, maximum three persons in the same house). More information at the Tourist Centre in Ban Nahin.

A waterfall, 3 km from town, following an upstream jungle path with plenty of rocks to climb and possibilities of swimming. Perfect for a one-day trek, with or without local guide. The path starts at the left side of the only temple in town. Leave before noon, so you won't get lost in the dark. Beware of mosquitoes and elephants. The Tourist Centre will sell you a ticket for 15,000 kip, but this is just a commission as there is no one to check your ticket.
