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.
