Description: |

Pra Prong Dam is the biggest irrigational dam in Srakaew
province. It is located at 3rd village and 6th village of
Chonggume sub-district, Nanakorn district, Srakaew province. Pra
Prong Dam is in one of his majesty the king’s projects to create
a dam at Pra Prong water source which flow down from Paang Sida
National Park. This dam is now the biggest water reserve here
and is also a habitat to countless species of fish and water
birds. This place is a great place to observe the beauty of
wetlands.
Pra Prong Dam is the most beautiful dam of
Srakaew. Around the reserve banks, scenery of this place is so
marvelously beautiful. The vast area of water is like mirror
reflecting the blue sky above. The mountain range from afar
makes this place a living mirror. For the best experience here,
it is recommended that visitors take small boat or raft and
float around the reserve. Visitors will have a panoramic view of
the reserve and also can observe the birds around the reserve at
the same time. Some water birds here are rare species like the
Ay Ngua bird or also known as Sanke bird which migrate here
during May to July every year.
Apart from canoe, boats,
and rafts, there are also other activities for visitors to
enjoy. For instance, fishing, trekking, and camping. For camping
visitors need to contact the staff first.
Traveling here
is easy. Visitors can take route 3198 for about 18.5 kilometers
until the intersection around Subnokkaew School turn left and
then the dam will be right in front of you. This dam opens daily
from 8.30 to 16.30 and it is free of charge. |
