About Namtok Sapan at Ban Sapan

Namtok Saphan in Nan province, North Thailand

Namtok Sapan (Sapan Waterfall) is located in the forest at the back-side of Khun Nan National Park but it is not part of it and entrance is free. The nature walking trail to Namtok Sapan takes about 30min but be sure to start walking at least 2 hours before it gets dark in the forest. Also be aware that it is not a smooth walking trail, you are really walking in a kind of jungle and the trail can be slippery. The waterfall itself is not spectacular but the walking trail to the waterfall is really nice to do. Take something to drink with you!

The entrance to Namtok Sapan is in Ban Sapan, but a bit difficult to find as there are only very small signs. Following the small road to Ban Sapan at the beginning of the village is a smaller road going to the right. This ends up at a parking from where the jungle trail to the waterfall begins.

There is no public transport going to Ban Sapan, although you might charter a Songtheaw in Bo Klua. For more information about Nan province have a look at Destination Travel Guide Nan.
