Overview
The Sticky Waterfall, also known as Bua Tong Waterfall, is a unique natural wonder located near Chiang Mai in Thailand. What makes this waterfall special is that the rocks surrounding it are unusually grippy or sticky, hence the name.
Unlike regular waterfalls where the rocks can be slippery due to algae or moss, the rocks at the Sticky Waterfall have a porous texture that creates friction, allowing visitors to climb up and down them easily. It's almost like climbing a giant natural staircase made of limestone.
The reason behind the "stickiness" of the rocks is due to the deposition of calcium carbonate and mineral deposits over time. These minerals create a surface that feels rough to the touch, similar to sandpaper, which provides excellent traction even when wet.
Visitors can enjoy a unique climbing experience at the Sticky Waterfall, where they can ascend the cascading tiers of the waterfall and swim in the natural pools formed by the flowing water.

What To Expect
Bua Thong Waterfalls (Nam Phu Chet Si)
Nam Tok Bua Tong (น้ําตกบัวตอง) aka the Sticky Waterfall, is an incredibly cool place to check out when you’re in Chiang Mai. The water here bubbles up from a natural spring, and it has such high levels of dissolved minerals that it coats the rocks and tree roots it flows over in high-traction limestone. They call it the “Sticky Falls” because the stone has so much grip. It’s a waterfall and it looks like it should be slippery, so your eyes can’t quite believe it when you see people easily walking on the steep rocks. You can climb all over the waterfall here and go wherever you want to go.
