Pom Pee Bungalows & Campground

Kanchanaburi Province


Basic chalets next to Khao Laem Reservoir, 9km north of Kroeng Krawia Waterfall. Accommodation is simple, but the sunsets are special.

Unlike most national parks, only tents are available for hire here, not mattress pads or sleeping bags.

Overnight visitors also need to pay Khao Laem National Park entrance fees.
