Despite its name (lek means 'small') this waterfall is actually a little bigger than it's companion Sai Yok Yai (yai means 'large') on the other side of the suspension bridge, but it got the diminutive name because less water flows here. There's an easy to reach viewpoint on the other side of the river.
