The Mae Klang Waterfall (pronounced "MEH KLAHNG") was the lowest of the waterfalls on the road going up to the top of Doi Inthanon, Thailand's highest peak. However, we happened to visit this one as the last of the three on the slopes of the mountain (since we waterfalled from the top down). I think the main tier of the falls cascades and tumbles some 25-30m, but there were more tiers further downstream from the main viewing deck. So there was no way we could capture the entire waterfall in a single photograph.
I remembered our guide set our expectations low by saying it wasn't big. But once we saw it, we stopped believing his sense of "small."
I recalled that our time spent at the falls was relatively quiet and peaceful. I wasn't sure if that was because this place was often overlooked or if most people were still having lunch.
In any case, we probably spent less than a half-hour encompassing both the short walk as well as all the photographing at the falls. So it's a pretty quick and non-strenuous place to visit.
Directions: We noticed during our ride (as part of an escorted tour) that the falls is actually on a spur road branching left from the road up to Doi Inthanon as we left from Chom Thong (the village is 66km southwest of Chiang Mai).
In terms of logistics, it took us maybe 20 minutes of driving downhill from the Wachirathan Waterfall or about 30 minutes east of the Mae Ya Waterfall.
