Dray Nur Waterfall - A majestic masterpiece of Central Highlands
If you are looking to escape the crowded tourist traps and want to experience some serious main-character energy, Vietnam’s Central Highlands is where it’s at. While everyone else is fighting for a spot on the beach, you could be chasing epic waterfalls in the wild. And if there is one spot that absolutely needs to be on your travel bucket list, it’s Dray Nur Waterfall.
This place is literally a majestic masterpiece straight out of a fantasy movie. Before you pack your bags, don't forget to follow Inbound Vietnam Travel on Facebook to catch all the best travel hacks and aesthetic itineraries!

1. What’s the Vibe at Dray Nur Waterfall?
Located in Buon Kuop village, about 25km away from the bustling center of Buon Ma Thuot city, Dray Nur Waterfall is where the borders of Dak Lak and Dak Nong provinces meet. It is part of an iconic trio of waterfalls in the region (alongside Dray Sap and Gia Long) fed by the poetic Serepok River.
In the local Ede language, "Dray Nur" translates to "Wife Waterfall." The river splits into two branches here, creating Dray Nur and its counterpart, the "Husband Waterfall" (Dray Sap). Unlike the aggressive and tumultuous flow of Dray Sap, Dray Nur Waterfall hits different with a much gentler, more lyrical cascade that flows over a massive 250-meter-long cliff.

2. Why This Spot is a 10/10 Experience
So, why should you make the trek out here? Here is why this breathtaking spot totally slaps:
The Cinematic Cascade and Scenery
The moment you step into the tourist area, the fresh, mist-filled mountain air instantly cures any travel fatigue. The water plunges from a towering height of 30 meters, creating a massive, misty curtain against a backdrop of lush, untamed jungle. It is the ultimate spot for wide-angle nature photography or shooting cinematic TikToks. The lush greenery surrounding the falls gives off major tropical core vibes.

The Mysterious Hidden Cave
If looking at the waterfall isn't enough of a flex, wait until you go inside it. Yep, Dray Nur Waterfall hides a massive, mysterious cave right behind its cascading water. You can actually take a guided trek through the rushing water curtain to explore the inside of the cavern. Walking through the dim, cool cave while listening to the roaring water outside is an unmatched adrenaline rush.
The Local Lore and Tragic Love Story
Every iconic landmark has a backstory, and this one serves major Romeo and Juliet drama. According to local legend, a couple from two rival tribes fell deeply in love but were forbidden from being together by their families. In despair, they threw themselves into the river to be together forever. The river then split into two branches—Dray Nur (the wife) and Dray Sap (the husband). Knowing the history gives the whole place a deeply romantic, albeit slightly melancholic, energy.

3. Level Up Your Central Highlands Adventure
Dray Nur Waterfall is just a taste of what the raw, wild beauty of the highlands has to offer. This region is famous for its bold coffee, indigenous Ede culture, and serene lakes.
