Na Khoang Waterfall is formed where two streams meet: the Na Deng Stream and another flowing from the Phia Slieng peak. The creation of Na Khoang Waterfall is not as easy as it seems to be, both streams have to pass through a challenging path with thousands of steep slopes. Eventually, when they merge, Na Khoang Waterfall becomes multi-tiered, which features a distinctive four-level cascade.
As a result, during your trip to Na Khoang Waterfall, you’ll be greeted by a white water stream stretching up to 600 meters in length and about 15 meters wide. While it may not rival some of the larger or more dramatic waterfalls in Vietnam, its charm lies in the harmonious combination of crystal-clear water, vibrant green foliage and grey stones with unusual shapes.
