TTMT04 - Exploring Mae Kampong - Trekking and Zipline Tour
This two-day program is perfect for adventurous nature lovers. We leave Chiang Mai early in the morning and drive to the picturesque village of Mae Kampong. This village is part of an ecotourism project designed to bring tourists closer to the rural parts of Thailand. In the afternoon we visit one of Thailand's beautiful national parks and relax in a hot spring. Next day we make a fantastic nature hike through cloud forest and enjoy some incredible views. In the afternoon we continue towards one of Thailand’s biggest zipline attractions, Flight of the Gibbon.
Beautiful 3 hour nature walk on Doi Mon Lan and a visit to the famous Flight of the Gibbon zipline Adventure
We depart from Chiang Mai in the early. With a coffee stop on the way we drive a good hour to our picturesque homestay in Ban Mae Kampong. Here we quickly drop our luggage and continue to the beautiful but not often visited Chaesorn National Park. We will enjoy a traditional Thai lunch and afterwards we will make a beautiful 2,5 hour walk in the national park, up a 6-tier waterfall with some fascinating scenery. We continue to natural hot springs where you can relax and take a bath in one of the hot water pools. There is no better way to calm down at the end of the day. We will go back to our homestay and after you’ve freshened up it is time for a delicious authentic Thai dinner at our home-stay. In the evening you have some time for yourself to enjoy the peace and quietness of this tranquil village.
After a hearty breakfast we will start on a beautiful three-hour nature walk. You'll walk through cloud forest. Enjoy the incredible views from the mountain. Birdlife on Doi Mon Lan is prolific. We’ll make a stop at Mae Kampong Waterfall where you can refresh yourself in the cool water. After this we will head back to our accommodation for a quick shower and a lunch. This afternoon it’s time for one of Thailand’s biggest adventures. Flight of the Gibbon has received worldwide credits and offers a safe, yet adventurous 3-4 hour canopy tour. Flight of the Gibbon features 39 Platforms, which are connected by 3 km of thick steel cables along which you glide between the towering trees from platform to platform, giving you a truly magnificent overview of the forest. We will enjoy a hearty dinner here before making our way back to Chiang Mai in the evening.
