Be Amazed at Phra That Cave

After you are done with Erawan Falls if you have a few hours to spare, be sure to continue on for about 10 km and visit Phra That Cave, one of the many mountain caves tucked away in the thick forest of Kanchanaburi. When you arrive at the entrance, you will have to show your Erawan National Park ticket to a ranger and they will point you to a trailhead where you will have to hike up the steep 600 m stairs for about 30 minutes hike until you arrive at the cave.

Within the cave, you will be guided by a national park ranger to each of the 5 caverns in Phra That Cave where you will see some of the most stunning rock formations out there with one looking like a Buddha image and another like a coral reef. There is an elevated walking path and there used to be a working artificial light system but it was broken due to a lightning strike a year ago and the government has yet to release a fund to fix it.
