The waterfall is set on the border of the Dong Houa Sao National Park and up in the cool air of the Bolaven Plateau, Laos's premier coffee-growing region. There's good hiking here, and the cool temperatures are a relief from the heat and humidity down on the Mekong. The area is accessible as a day trip from Pakse, though there is a somewhat run-down and overpriced resort at the base of the falls should you care to stay. Aside from the easy stroll out to the viewing platform above the main falls, those who don't suffer vertigo can try the 400-meter-high zipline that soars over the falls, giving a bird's-eye view of the area ($40 per person). You can also take a guided walk down to the base of the falls, or venture onto one of the roundabout trails going up above the falls. These trails take in some minor falls and some fun swimming holes. Farther afield, the beautiful Tat Yeuang falls can be reached in about an hour via a trail from Tad Fane or from a turnout at Km 40 on the main road. Inquire at the resort about guides and trail information.
