RANONG CANYON INFORMATION

Ranong Canyon

The Ranong Canyon is just the other side of Hat Som Paen. This used to be an old mine that used the water strength to seek the mineral out of the soil. As time passed, all the soil was eroded and turned into a deep basin surrouned by high soil and stone cliffs. This large and abandoneed mine is now full of water coming up from underground & rainfall. It is now full of big fish you can feed, and it's great for swimming. In Thai it's called "SRA MORAKOT" ( The emerald basin )Due to the dark green colour of the water.

This is a fovourite place for many locals, the water is perfect for swimming. Along side the water are little huts for you to sit in and relax. There are also food vendors & cold beer.
