Kaeng Kracha Dam
Kaeng Krachan Dam, which has a height of 58 meters, length of 760
meters, was completed in 1966. This dam was constructed because the
Phetch Dam cannot store water and when the water level in the Phetch
River is too high it has to be released uselessly. Therefore, Kaeng
Krachan Dam was constructed to store water, to be delivered to the
Phetch Dam for distribution into the irrigated area. The Dam provides
visitors with a stunning scenic viewpoint of the reservoir and its
islands while the most popular activity is a cruising trip on the
reservoir.
