About this audio guide
This guide to Hin Lad Waterfall on Koh Samui follows the trail from Wat Namtok Hin Lat's working forest temple up through the jungle to the waterfall's swimming holes, where visitors have leapt from rock ledges for generations. It traces the hike's climb, the carved stone pools, and the contrast between the site's role as an island playground and as a meditation retreat for monks. Best heard in sturdy shoes for the wet rock underfoot.
