History


Description

Tham Pha Hong is a well known tourist attraction of Nam Nao National Park. It is well sign posted with a car park beside the H12 and a track leading to the cvae entrance. The cave is located in a limestone outcrop high up in the cliff. A metal ladder allows easy access to the upper cave with its shrine. This cave is rather short.

Two smaller entrances below lead into a more extensive cave. A passage with about 30 m can be visited, then it becomes low and crawling is necessary.
