This place is just beautiful and gives you the whole jungle experience! NOTE: WEAR THE PROPER CLOTHES AND TAKE REPELLENT! It’s a hiking trail and pretty tricky hiking trail. The whole path takes around 40 minutes (minus time for pics). You will also have to ford a river, so mind that! The entire costs 400 THB per person.
A beautiful, small waterfall is located 100 meters from the parking lot surrounded by wild nature. The territory has a large number of: wild plants; trees and vines; on which you can swing, like on a swing. There are many: wild animals; reptiles; insects; spiders; leeches and other creatures - you need to carefully look around and under your feet. Ton Sai is located on the territory of the Khao Phra Thaeo National Park, - so the territory here is quite large. For lovers of trekking in the jungle, this place can be good in terms of physical activity. * When visiting this attraction, you need to stock up on water, repellents and have comfortable shoes best time to visit: June - October entrance: 200 baht (gives the right to visit the Bang Pae waterfall) Full information with video and easy navigation - in the application ?

Not very accessible if looking to do the full walk! I arrived in the morning via taxi hoping to be able to walk the jungle by myself but had a look at the track aware of snakes and decided to ask for a guide - which turns out apparently you have to have! I got a fantastic ranger as a guide who shared knowlege about the forest and spotted a few snakes that I wouldn’t have noticed otherwise… Very glad to have the guide. 1500baht for one way - so if you plan to do the full track from Ton Sai waterfall to the Gibbon centre don’t bring your own vehicle! They offer a 900baht option for a 3km loop that returns to Tin Sai waterfall, however, and this would probably be enough to see some wildlife. The track itself isn’t so much overgrown (I’ve been in far worse) but there are a lot of false leads so I highly recommend getting a guide - super helpful and you learn some local knowledge too! It was about 6km and took 2-2.5 hours with just myself and a guide. There’s some waterholes along the way too so bring your bathers! Overall, a fantastic experience. But I had a nightmare with taxi prices to and from seeing as I was staying in Phuket Town. I don’t know what other option there would be for the one way trek.
Tonsai Waterfall is a peaceful spot tucked inside Khao Phra Thaeo National Park in Phuket. The walk to the waterfall is easy—just about 10 minutes from the entrance—and the trail is shaded by though some paths are not well maintained. The waterfall itself is small, so don’t expect anything dramatic, but the soothing sounds of water and buzzing insects make it feel close to nature. Entry is 200 baht for adults and 100 baht for kids. There aren’t many facilities—just restrooms and carpark, so bring your own snacks and water. Overall, a relaxing break from Phuket’s crowds, and the walk down can be a work out!
