Arriving at the Bua Thong 'sticky' Waterfalls, the first thing you notice is that they are quite steep, multi-tiered cascades rather than a huge singular waterfall. They are called ''the sticky waterfalls'' because they are made of limestone and mineral deposits. It gives you a good grip to walk up or down the cascades. There are many ropes to hold on to. I spent two hours pretending I was a super hero and it really enjoyable. It was probably more enjoyable as it was the wet season and because the water flow was strong. In the dry season the water flow tends to be less. To cool off from Chiang Mai's heat, this is a nice day trip. Go as early as possible and avoid the weekends in order to avoid the crowds. Definitely worth doing.
