From the Sai Yok Yai waterfalls a track leads through the jungle to the Three Pagodas Pass, one of the original terminals of the "Death Railway". The area is inhabited by a number of hill tribes who eke out a meager living from "slash-and-burn" agriculture. The pass gets its name from the three pagodas by the roadside, and leads up into the mountains on the Thai-Burmese border - the highest peak in the region is 1950 m (6400 ft). It is a favorite route for smugglers and exploration on foot in this wild place is certainly not to be recommended.
