Rachabrapah dam wall was built in 1982 and it has created a huge lake (165 sq km) called Cheow Lan, which is in the Khao Sok National Park. It is used to generate hydro-electric power for the fast growing southern region of Thailand. Longtail boats take tourist deep into the lake to see the caves, go on hikes and see to the huge limestone outcrops of up to 960m.
The park grounds at the dam wall are well groomed with lots of lawn for all the New Year picnics. Its a large area including a few guest houses on the waterfront. It was a great spot to have an icecream!
