Location
Wat Tham Wua Daeng is sign posted, in Thai, to the west of the H2559. A good surfaced road leads to Wat Thep Prathan Phon and the start of the 1,100 steps up to the cave. There appear to be several cave entrances in the cliffs and gorge which are passed on the ascent. At the top of the gorge the path levels off and ends at another wat.
Description
Tham Wua Daeng is a small shrine cave, with a lot of statues.
