Phu Soi Dao waterfall and Saithip waterfall are some of the attractions of the park. The landscape is similar to the area on the Phu Kradueng plateau further southeast, with grasslands and pine trees such as Pinus kesiya. Betula alnoides, Schima wallichii and Shorea siamensis are among the other species of trees present in the forest. Utricularia spinomarginata and Utricularia phusoidaoensis are endemic plants on Phu Soi Dao.
