This excursion was probably the best one I did while on a trip to Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam with my father.
Ken our guide was knowledgeable about not only the region and people but also the local plants and wildlife.
A few things to mention:
The total trek distance is 6.61 miles as tracked on my Garmin. You start in a local village, Ban Long, after getting dropped off. I am an avid hiker and did not have issues at any point. This "trek" allows you to see areas of the country side and the head springs of the waterfall.
While it was not an overly difficult hike there are some slippery portions especially close to the water fall. My father is 69 and did ok but was a little tired at the end.
Wear good hiking shoes and would advise longer light pants for areas that are a little overgrown.
The guide brings water for you, so no issue there but when they say sunscreen and some bug repellent take their advise.
We went on a day that it had not rained much but could see many of the parts of the trail being washed out if it had.
Beautiful views and an amazing time!
