Located in the region of Phou Pha (120 km from Thakhek and 215 km from Vientiane), Ban Nahin is a rural village lying in a valley surrounded by spectacular limestone mountains and is near one of the most fantastic viewpoints in Laos. A small dam constructed in November 2012 has led to the growth of both foreign employees and tourists.
Ban Nahin is a perfect choice for adventure tourists who participate in doing the exciting and well-known Khammouane motorbike tour (The Loop) with the starting point in Thakhek. The high-altitude viewpoint situated 5 km from Ban Nahin is an interesting place to relax and take nice photos of the breathtaking landscapes of the region. For those who are nature-lovers, do not miss the chance to explore the miraculous Kong Lor cave, trek the Tad Namsana waterfall, and wander in the lush jungle. Although these areas are a bit off-the-beaten-track of the frequently visited sites of the country, most tourists mentioned them as the highlights in their trip to Laos.
To get to Ban Nahin, you can travel by private car from Lak Sao, Thakhek, and Vientiane. This peaceful village is suitable for getting around on foot and by bike.
Climate, the best time to visit
Ban Nahin has a tropical climate with an average temperature of 25 °C. The best time to visit the region is during months in the dry season from October to March.
