Nam Tok Ton Sai

Namtok Ton Sai is located in Khao Phra Thaeo Wildlife Park near Thalang town, 20 Kilometers from Phuket town. It is a small waterfalls which pours a great volume of water during the rainy season. 22.28 square Kilometers of virgin forest are coverd by this park, which also actively conserves a number of wild animals; they would otherwise be extinct in fast-growing Phuket. It is also a centre for study of the environment and the forest vegetation is spectacular. Giant trees supported by huge buttresses are thick with creepers and climbers of every description. One species of palm, the Governor’s Palm or White Back Palm (pam lang khao in Thai) is especially rare. Khao Phra Thaeo also serves as one of Phuket’s most important water sources. The trees, watercourses, and pools nearby provide one of Phuket’s loveliest scenes. The park headquarters and a small restaurant with an excellent view are also at Ton Sai.
