Kirirom National Park (It is accessed from Hwy 46 from Traeng Trayung on Hwy 4, Phnom Penh-Sihanoukville). This national park set up in the mountains (elevation 600-700 m)and is easily accessible. On the top of the mountain some hikes can be undertaken, some views to be had, and there are some waterfalls to be seen. This is a very popular day trip for Cambodians, and can get very busy at weekends. This popularity also means the areas surrounding the waterfalls have a litter problem.
