Nam Taloo Cave, Khao Sok National Park Thailand

Nam Taloo Cave, Khao Sok National Park Thailand

Nam Taloo Cave (or Nam Thalu) in the Khao Sok National Park offers you a chance to see some amazing and unique cave creatures. You can go on cave treks that takes about three hours to complete. The trail follows a lovely creek. It eventually reaches a large entrance to the cave system. The creek flows through the cave and you'll be in shallow water for a while, then deeper water. This is a very popular trek with day trippers from the river area of Khao Sok. On the way to the cave you will go through some thick jungle and limestone formations which is a really great trek.

The Nam Taloo cave has some wonderful formations thought the cave and does have a few tricky area too to makes it a lot more fun, its not dangerous at all but there is parts where you will need to take it slow and steady.It is not a cave you should go into without a guide and advise from the national park officials as a couple of years ago some people did die in the cave. The park officials told them not to go in as it was raining heavily. I believe 8 people died and only 1 survived as a flash flood came through the cave. So please do not attempt to go in the cave on your own, if you do at least make sure its not raining.

The cave is a save place to go if you follow some of the basic safety practices, wear some proper shoes as it can be slippery, make sure you have a water proof torch, a basic first aid kit, if you go with a guide he should definitely have one with him.

The Nam Taloo cave is probably one of the best caved to venture through in Thailand, so next time your in Khao Sok I highly recommend you see it. Just remember to ask the park officials first before entering the cave just to be on the safe side as it is a great place to explore but doing it safely is the most important.
