The morning mist bleaches the scenery along the road, winding up and down and disappearing at a next curve. A few minutes' walk takes us close to the Sirindhorn waterfall, and another 300 metres along we hear the water roaring amid the foliage and rock walls. Another more challenging walking route goes along the stream flowing into the waterfall for about 1.5 kilometres. Tree ferns along on a trekking route. Other routes require more experienced trekkers.
Visitors can consult with sanctuary officials.
But even if you are not inclined to hike along the trails, sightings of various birds have also been reported at the back of the lodging area. In the afternoon we stop for a couple of hours to refresh ourselves by a pool at the waterfall. A plunge into the cool water, lunch and a short break in the shade of the trees soon cast fatigued trekkers into a slumbering spell. Nearby a plant nursery, which stocks dozens of wild plant species samplings, lies to be explored. Aside from a natural attractions at the sanctuary, if time permits, those interested in exploring how local people pursue their living can seek out fishing villages in Narathiwat.
