Ti Lo Su Waterfall – The Black Demon
Ti Lo Su Waterfall is located in the remote Umphang region and surrounded by mountains, jungle and wild natural landscapes.
It is known as the Black Demon because of its power, size and dramatic appearance. Wide cascades, humid forest air and the sound of falling water create one of the strongest impressions of the expedition.
The journey to the waterfall is an important part of the experience. Guests first travel by river, continue by jeep and then follow a forest trail on foot.

A winding mountain road with misty valleys, panoramic viewpoints and remote landscapes.

The Sky Highway and Umphang
The road to Umphang follows one of Thailand’s most scenic mountain routes. It is often called the Sky Highway because of its high roads, misty valleys and panoramic viewpoints.
Umphang is a small town surrounded by mountains, jungle and rivers. It serves as the starting point for expeditions to Ti Lo Su Waterfall.
The region has a remote atmosphere and feels very different from Thailand’s popular beach resorts and large tourist cities.
Rafting, Jeep Safari and Trekking
The journey to Ti Lo Su combines three different stages. The first is a rafting route along the river, passing rocks, grottoes, jungle banks and small waterfalls.
The second stage is a jeep safari through the national park. The final stage is a marked trekking trail through the forest to the waterfall.
All active stages depend on the weather, water level, road conditions and current national park regulations.
