Tips & Tricks from Real Parents
Start at tier 1 (easy, flat walk from entrance) and work up. Tiers 1-3 are swimmable for toddlers with supervision.
Pack a picnic. Food at the entrance is limited and expensive. There are shaded spots near tier 1.
Tier 2 is the most beautiful and has the biggest swimming area. Most families stop here.
Bring water shoes! The rocks are slippery and sharp. Do not let kids climb barefoot.
Arrive by 8 AM to avoid the tour bus crowds. By 11 AM the lower tiers are packed.

A Real Parent's Story
We lost track of time at tier 2
“The water is so clear you can see fish nibbling your toes. My kids spent 3 hours jumping off a small rock into the pool. I sat on a boulder reading. No WiFi. No complaints. Perfection.”

Erawan is the reason we came to Kanchanaburi. It exceeded every expectation. The water is bath-temperature warm, crystal clear, and full of fish that give free pedicures. The hike to upper tiers is challenging but the lower ones are heavenly for families.
