Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
Bou Sraa is a 33km, one-hour journey east of Sen Monorom on a mostly sealed road.
Basic snacks and drinks are available at the falls, but pack a picnic if you want something
more sophisticated.
Other Waterfalls
Other popular waterfalls in Mondulkiri include
Romanear Waterfall
, 18km southeast of Sen
Monorom, and
Dak Dam Waterfall
, 25km southeast of Sen Monorom. Both are very diffi-
cult to find without assistance, so it's best to take a
moto
driver or local guide. Romanear
is a low, wide waterfall with some convenient swimming holes. There is also a second
Romanear Waterfall, known rather originally as
Romanear II
, which is near the main road
between Sen Monorom and Snuol. Dak Dam is similar to the Monorom Falls, albeit with
a greater volume of water. The waterfall is several kilometres beyond the Bunong village
of Dak Dam and locals are able to lead the way if you can make yourself understood.
Bunong Villages
Several Bunong villages around Sen Monorom make for popular excursions, although the
frequently visited villages that appear on tourist maps have assimilated into modern soci-
ety. In general, the further out you go, the less exposed the village. Trips to Bunong vil-
lages can often be combined with waterfalls or elephant treks. Each guesthouse has a pre-
ferred village to send travellers to, which is a great way to spread the wealth.
