Kampong Kleang is located on the northern lake-edge about 40km east of Siem Reap town. More remote and less tourist than Kampong Pluk. The visitors to Kampong Kleang during the dry season are universally awestruck by the forest of stilted house rising up to 10 meters in the Air. The wet season the water rise to within one or two meters of the buildings. Like Kampong Pluk, Kampong Kleang is the permanent community within the floodplain of the lake, with an economy based in fishing and surrounded by flooded forest. But Kampong Kleang is significantly larger with near 10 times the population of Kampong Pluk. Making it the largest community on the lake.
The area can be reached by boat from the Chong Khneas docks or by a combination of road to Domdek on Route #6 and then boat to the village, the best method depending on the time of year. During the dry season, boat can not get all the way to the main villages. Consult your guest house or tour operator about current condition.
