Take the H4035 north-east from Ao Luek towards Ban Khoak Sae. Turn east for 7km and as you enter the village of Ban Bang Lieo the Tham Warin resurgence is on the righthand (south-west) side of the road.
Description
The downstream river entrance is right beside the road at the base of a cliff. A concrete bridge/footpath has replaced the old wooden boardwalk and leads to a large, dry chamber on the left with large formations and some bats. The concrete bridge continues along the streamway to the other side of the ridge.
