Huai Pa Daeng Reservoir, Phetchabun Province, Thailand

4.0 (15 reviews) Spent Ranking #6 in Phetchabun Bodies of Water

Reservoir itself is rather boring, but the restaurant here is tasty and affordable!

My girlfriend and I took a day long taxi around to the sights of Phetchabun - this was our lunch stop. The reservoir is like any old other one - great if you like fishing I suppose. The treat here was the fairly new restaurant - food was very good. We had small, live shrimp caught that day from the reservoir which were put in a briny sauce and served that way. Also, had fried tiny shrimp made into a "shrimp ball" and chicken wings. All very affordable!

    Can be a Beautiful Spot .....
    I've been here many times over the years, but the last time was a bit of a shock. It's certainly a beautiful spot at dusk and a nice place for a picnic. There are places to sit as well a paths to walk around. On my last visit the water levels were really low and the food places had gone. The little waterfall area was dry and the toilets were locked. It looked quite neglected. Fortunately we picked up water on the way there. It's still a nice place to visit, to relax, bike, walk, cycle, but it's not the spot it was a few years ago.

    Dam
    This is the second time I have visited this dam the first time was pleasant as the dam was full, owing to the drought conditions the experience was a little underwhelming. Not easy to find if no local knowledge.
