Chrey Thom Waterfall


The Chrey Thom Waterfall is situated in Poules and Pouchhob Villages, Dakdam Commune, Oreang District; 20 km away from the provincial town. It can be accessed by the red pebble path.
There are more than 208 families living in the Chrey Thom area of 303.555 ha, whose main occupations are farming.
This resort is managed and conserved by the Ethnic Community Commission vested by the provincial authority in collaboration with the provincial executive committee. It is partly supported financially by the DANIDA Organization of Denmark.
During the rainy season, the waterfall is 11 meters in height and 8 meters in diameter.  During the dry season, the waterfall is 15 meters in height and 2 meters in diameter. Near the waterfall is a big branched Chrey tree situated in the Sralao plantation.
The resort provides plenty of opportunities for picnicking, hiking, swimming, especially for visiting an ethnic village and purchasing some souvenirs beautifully produced by ethnic groups.
Its main points of interest are a spectacular waterfall, dramatic mountainous forest, impressive undulating hills, and fresh air.
