Pongour Waterfall in Dalat, Vietnam
One of the highlights of Dalat was getting out of town to see one of the most impressive waterfalls in South-East Asia.
Pongour Waterfall is one of the most famous waterfalls in Lam Dong province . Pongour is worth the journey and if you had to choose just one waterfall to visit while in Da Lat, we’d rank this over both Datanla and Elephant Waterfalls.
This enormous chasm was once filled by the torrent of the Đa Nhim River. These days, however, its flow is controlled by the Đa Nhim dam, which you can see from Highway 20, about 10km east of Pongour falls. Unfortunately, this has also affected the majesty and might of the waterfall. What water there is gushes over a wall of rock, 100 metres wide and 40 metres high, and flows down across seven separate levels of terraced rock to the big placid pool at the bottom.
The only thing that you need to be aware of is that during dry season the volume of water is diminished substantiallu. You can actually walk through it….
