3-Day Chiang Dao Mountain Trek

3 days

Challenging

Trek through scenic landscapes of northern Thailand with an experienced adventure guide. Follow your guide on forest trails leading to various villages and encounter friendly locals.
Doi Chiang Dao mountain range lies to the North of Chiang Mai. The area is home to many ethnic hill-tribe villages, and down to the west of the mountain flows the Mae Tang river through nestled in the scenic valley. This adventurous and strenuous mountain will take participants off the beaten track across the mountain range, down to the Maetang River valley, hiking on trails regularly used by villagers. Trekkers will enjoy scenic views from the mountain as a significant part of the hike is on the mountain ridges. You'll spend two nights in very rustic accomodation in the mountain, and that is part of this amazing experience.
