I'm planning to go to Kanchanaburi tomorrow to hike to Erawan waterfall.

Anybody want to join me?

Also, anyone know a good hotel/guest house in case I decide to stay overnight?

Thanks.

About the elephant, is it a handwash or machine wash?

I am not a mountain person, so do not know much about hiking. Have fun though!

Upcountry Kanchanaburi, beyond the town on the way to the Burmese border, is so beautiful. Many other waterfalls and caves and elephants to wash along the way. We stayed a couple of nights at a place called Suan Tan Resort about midway to the big dam from town. Gorgeous setting, nobody else there, almost no staff there either, and were completely clueless/confused what to do when we arrived. We just paid them 500baht per night for a great little cottage overlooking a small waterfall, handed them the cash, no check-in, nothing. Hilariously informal/disorganized/almost shut down in off-season. The money probably went straight into the pockets of the few staff, who likely never bothered to report our presence to the owners.
