Nice little pool along the way. If you're lucky, there will be butterflies feeding in the sand. Really lucky? Lots of them.
Monthathan Waterfall. You come out to a road then get back on a trail to get to here.
Last Waterfall on the trail. Most people visit this by walking down from Doi Suthep Temple.
Vine desperately holding up tree. Assume that it will crush the life out of it later.
Strangler fig that has taken over the original tree it attached itself to. I love these murderous guys.

Story
This is a very nice, 3 hour hike from the first rest stop on the road to Doi Suthep Temple, to the Temple itself. You can park just below the zoo and follow the same creek for an extra 20 minutes or so but we drove to here for time. The trail is pretty well marked except for a couple of spots that had us turning around a little. It requires a bit of climbing over rocks and crossing logs but nothing too bad. Bring a couple of bottles of water and depending on the season, maybe a rain jacket, just in case.
Beautiful hike up the creek for most of the way that is never boring.
You can make your way back on foot but again for time, we grabbed a red truck from the temple.
