ANISAKAN WATERFALLS (DAT TAW GYAINT WATERFALL)

The pickup starts as soon as it's full, as usual. It's best to plan an early morning departure. You will then be dropped off at a crossroads, from where you will have a good hour's walk. Follow the road on the right until you reach a small refreshment bar. Its presence says a lot about the effort you still have to make! The descent is quite easy, gravitation obliges. Follow the sounds of water to orient yourself in the gorge. Five falls can theoretically be observed, but it is not always easy to find them all: if you find yourself hanging from the vines along a steep wall, you have made a mistake. If possible, turn back! Don't hesitate to walk barefoot in the refreshing little streams, especially as the bottoms are made of very pleasant pumice stones. On the way back, there are many small shortcuts along very steep paths, but which allow you to land more quickly on the way back. On the other hand, you won't pass the refreshment bar a second time. You have to choose! There are vendors offering water all along, and for good reason! That being said, you can now take advantage of being in Anisakan to take a short walk to the bamboo Buddha. It's not so common and it's a place quite frequented by the pilgrims of the region. It will take half an hour walk to reach it from the main road.
