Location

From Ban Phu Luang take the H2250 east to Ban Nong Kan. At the crossroads in the village take the road south, following the western edge of the hills, past the Namtok Huai Lao Forest Park. The waterfall park is signed from Ban Phu Luang. The wat is on the left (south of the road) as it drops down over a scarp and has a car park, toilets, etc. and is expanding with new huts due to be built. The entrances are located beside a wat which is built under an overhang. Martin Ellis - 20/02/2020

Description

Martin Ellis - 20/02/2020

Tham Din Lai consists of two adjacent caves linked by a very small tunnel. The cave is formed in a sandy limestone. Cave 1 has 30m of passage which widens then a 5m crawl which opens into a 15m long chamber. A small hole at the end of the chamber dropped down a rift that wasn't explored. It has a total length of about 50m. Cave 2 consists of a single chamber about 20m long.
