Nestled on the northwestern edge of Cambodia’s iconic Tonlé Sap Lake lies a unique and enchanting destination—**Prek Toal**, a floating village and internationally recognized bird sanctuary that perfectly embodies the harmony between nature, culture, and sustainable tourism. This community-based ecotourism site, located in Battambang Province, offers a rare window into the daily life of a waterborne community while providing critical protection to some of Southeast Asia’s most endangered bird species.

What makes Prek Toal truly exceptional is its dual identity. On one hand, it’s a thriving floating village where families live in houses that rise and fall with the lake’s changing seasons. On the other, it is home to the Prek Toal Bird Sanctuary, a biosphere reserve managed with the support of the Wildlife Conservation Society and local conservationists. This flooded forest ecosystem is considered the most important breeding ground for large waterbirds in Southeast Asia, sheltering endangered species such as the Spot-billed Pelican, Painted Stork, Greater Adjutant, and Milky Stork.

The best time to visit Prek Toal is between December and February, during the dry season when the sanctuary comes alive with nesting activity. Birdwatchers, photographers, and nature lovers flock to the area for guided boat tours led by trained local bird guides. Visitors are treated to the sight of hundreds of birds soaring overhead or nesting in treetops, creating a visual and auditory experience unlike any other. Observation platforms within the sanctuary offer panoramic views across the flooded forest, making it a dream destination for wildlife enthusiasts.

Beyond the natural wonders, the heart of Prek Toal lies in its community-based tourism model. Established in collaboration with NGOs such as Osmose, the initiative was designed to offer an alternative livelihood for local families while conserving the fragile ecosystem. Visitors can choose to stay overnight in floating homestays, enjoy traditional Cambodian meals prepared by host families, and participate in cultural experiences like fishing, weaving with water hyacinth, or visiting floating schools and workshops. Every dollar spent contributes directly to the village’s economy and helps reduce pressures like illegal fishing and deforestation.

Getting to Prek Toal from Siem Reap is relatively easy: a short drive to the boat port is followed by a scenic 1–1.5 hour ride across Tonlé Sap. The journey itself is part of the adventure, as visitors travel past vast wetlands and glimpses of life on the lake. Though simple in facilities, Prek Toal offers something that many destinations lack—authenticity, peace, and purpose. It’s not a polished resort, but a place where travelers can witness resilience, biodiversity, and the real rhythms of rural Cambodia.

Whether you’re passionate about bird conservation, interested in local culture, or just looking to escape the crowds, Prek Toal offers a truly memorable and meaningful travel experience. It’s a living example of how ecotourism, when done right, can protect nature while uplifting the communities who depend on it.

Experience the Thrill of Angkor Zipline: Adventure in the Heart of Angkor Park

If you’re looking to combine the beauty of nature with an unforgettable adrenaline rush, Angkor Zipline is a must-visit adventure nestled deep within Cambodia’s world-famous Angkor Archaeological Park. Just a short drive from Siem Reap, this eco-adventure offers a unique and exhilarating way to explore the lush tropical forest canopy surrounding the ancient temples. With a strong emphasis on safety, environmental conservation, and community engagement, Angkor Zipline isn’t just about excitement—it’s about connecting with nature and supporting sustainable tourism in one of Southeast Asia’s most iconic destinations.

Angkor Zipline features a series of thrilling zip lines, sky bridges, and tree platforms that give you a bird’s-eye view of the jungle below. You’ll soar through the forest like a gibbon, gliding between trees and witnessing the incredible biodiversity that thrives in this protected area. From butterflies and exotic birds to rare flora, the jungle is alive with color and sound. Depending on the package you choose, your adventure can include up to 10 zip lines, multiple hanging bridges, and even a controlled abseil descent. Each course is guided by trained professionals who not only ensure your safety but also provide interesting facts about the local ecosystem and Angkor’s natural history.

What truly sets Angkor Zipline apart is its commitment to conservation and sustainability. The entire experience is designed to have minimal environmental impact, with platforms built without harming the trees and strict policies in place to protect the habitat. In addition, the company works closely with the local community by providing employment opportunities, supporting education initiatives, and sourcing materials locally whenever possible. This means that every ticket purchased contributes to preserving Cambodia’s cultural and natural heritage.

The location within Angkor Park also makes this experience incredibly special. Few places in the world offer the chance to zip line just a stone’s throw away from ancient ruins that date back to the 12th century. After your zipline adventure, you can continue your day by exploring iconic temples like Angkor Wat, Bayon, and Ta Prohm, all located within a short distance. It’s the perfect way to balance adventure with cultural immersion.

Whether you’re a thrill-seeker, a nature lover, or a curious traveler looking for something beyond the usual temple tours, Angkor Zipline offers a safe, family-friendly, and environmentally conscious adventure that will be one of the highlights of your trip to Cambodia. With various packages available for all ages and skill levels, including half and full-day options, there’s something for everyone. So gear up, take a deep breath, and get ready to fly through the treetops of one of the most awe-inspiring places on earth. Angkor Zipline isn’t just an activity—it’s an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.
