What to expect

Step into the fresh morning air and leave the city behind as your full-day jungle trekking adventure begins with round-trip transfers from Chiang Rai downtown. Travel in a small group along winding mountain roads, where every curve reveals layers of green hills and builds anticipation before you reach the wilderness.

Arrive at Lam Nam Kok National Park and begin around 5 hours of immersive trekking through shaded jungle and whispering bamboo forests. Visit Lisu, Chinese, Akha, and Lahu hill tribe villages to witness authentic daily life, walk through lush tea plantations, and cool off with a refreshing swim at Huai Kaeo Waterfall.

Cook lunch over firewood in a traditional bamboo hut with your knowledgeable local guide, then unwind in the warm mineral waters of Pha Soet Hot Spring. Includes small-group experience, English-speaking guide, lunch, hot spring access, and round-trip transfers from Chiang Rai downtown.

If you’re looking to go beyond sightseeing and experience the natural and cultural side of northern Thailand at a slower pace, this moderate-level eco trekking journey offers a meaningful and active way to explore it.
