Wachirathan Waterfall
1009, Tambon Ban Luang, Amphoe Chom Thong, Chang Wat Chiang Mai 50160
Segmented eighty-meter cascade on a sacred Karen hill-tribe creek, its spray throwing rainbows in the sun.
This guide to Wachirathan Waterfall on Doi Inthanon traces its two names: Tat Khong Yong, sacred to the Karen hill tribe for generations, and Wachirathan, diamond creek, given later in honor of the future King Rama the Tenth. It follows the eighty-meter cascade's spray and the rainbows it throws in sunlight, the flash of color locals compare to a gem. Listen for it at the base of the falls, where the mist decides how close you'll get.
