The best way to see the beautiful Kuang Si Waterfall is by trekking a lush forest trail that winds through local villages and offers views of Lao mountain landscapes. This three-to-four hour trek brings you to the refreshing turquoise pools at the falls where you’ll have time to cool down, swim and enjoy the Kuang Si Waterfall Nature Reserve and Bear Rescue Center.

Incredible experience with my family. We visited the waterfall and then also swam in the water which was so refreshing! Also it was my first time seeing bears and it was an amazing experience!

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!

This is a well thought out corner of the Kuang Si falls park. There are a number of rescued bears that would have wound up in Chinese cages getting milked for their bile. This is a torture industry for fallacious Chinese ‘medicine’ that needs to be stopped point blank. I fully commend the owners for displaying a cage that a bear would spend its life in, encouraging you to crawl inside and see what it would feel like yourself. They pull no punches about what the bears go through so it is wonderful to see them, out in their sanctuary, relaxing and playing happily and most importantly SAFELY. There are good displays teaching you about the animals but again I would recommend more information be put up for Chinese tourists. Good gift shop and I am proudly wearing my FREE THE BEARS t shirt now. Excellent, and keep up the great work.
