Private Chiang Rai Jungle Trek with Akha Village and Bamboo Lunch

Step into Chiang Rai’s wild highlands on a private jungle trek for nature lovers, active travelers, and culture seekers. Begin with hotel pickup from Chiang Rai city and travel to the forested Lam Nam Kok area and Pha Soet Hot Spring, where mountain trails, bamboo forests, tea plantations, waterfalls, and hot springs frame a full-day adventure beyond sightseeing.

Follow your local guide through shaded jungle paths and bamboo groves, breathing in fresh mountain air as the forest opens around you. Visit Lisu and Chinese villages, walk through tea plantations, and learn how people live closely with the land, forest, mountains, and changing seasons. Make the day more memorable with hands-on bamboo cooking as you prepare a traditional lunch over an open fire using simple local techniques. This experience can be hard to find on your own, giving you a deeper connection to the people, food, and forest around you.

After lunch, cool off with a refreshing waterfall swim, continue through jungle trails to Akha and Lahu villages, then unwind in the hot spa pool at Pha Soet Hot Spring before returning to Chiang Rai with unforgettable memories.
