What to See at Anlung Svay

The Falls

Anlung Svay steps a mountain stream down through rock cascades and small pools shaded by forest. It’s a modest, genuinely local site — no big infrastructure, a handful of seasonal food stalls at busy times, and Khmer families picnicking on weekends. Come for the swim, the quiet and the countryside drive, not for spectacle.

Part of the Tuek Phos Waterfall Belt

The same foothills hide Tmor Kral, Bongkorng Roneab and Sre Ampel — all within a manageable loop. Anlung Svay is typically the add-on stop rather than the destination, which is exactly why it stays quiet.

How to Get to Anlung Svay

The falls are in Tuek Phos district, southwest of Kampong Chhnang town, on rural roads.

  • By moto or high-clearance car: Navigate by the map link; the final approach is unsealed
  • Combine: Slot it into a Tuek Phos day with Tmor Kral and Keat Farm, or an overnight at Merl Pkay or Mountain View camping

Practical Tips

  • Strongly seasonal — by the late dry season there may be little more than a trickle; ask locally before detouring
  • Bring everything you need (water, food, cash); services are minimal outside weekends
  • Swim clothed or modestly, as local families do
  • Mobile signal is patchy in the foothills — download offline maps first

Nearby Attractions

  • Tmor Kral Waterfall — the community-managed stone-carpet falls nearby
  • Bongkorng Roneab Waterfall — another of the belt’s seasonal cascades
  • Merl Pkay Camping — stargazing campsite in the same hills
