Featuring an odd, boat-shaped rock cliff, this national park (Boat Mountain) consists of several sandstone peaks and a vast pine-covered mountain plateau. Elevated at a level of 1,375 m, and covering an area of 121 sq km, Phu Rua offers some breathtaking views, and a broad spectrum of natural flora and fauna. The top of Phu Rua also offers some truly spectacular views into the Lao countryside, as well as of the Heang and Khong Rivers.
Popular natural attractions include Pha Lon Nai - a cliff offering a wonderful panoramic view of the sunrise, Pha Sup Thong or Pha Ku Lap Khaw (White Rose Cliff) - a very steep cliff teeming with white roses --and Huai Phai Waterfall - an eye-catching 30 meter-high waterfall. Tents and bungalows are available at the park and reservations can be made with the National Parks Department.

Phu Rua National Park can be reached by bus from Loei, and from the Lom Sak District of the Petchabun Province. Cars can also be hired, and is typically a much more convenient method of travel, as public transportation is difficult to find all the way from Loei to the park, especially on weekdays.
