Overview

Journey through the rainforest, high up in the mountains east of Chiang Mai on this 1 day trip in and around Mae Kampong. We'll explore a stunning village nestled among towering mountains, meet and have a chat with the locals and enjoy some local treats and even have a chance at spotting gibbons in the wild!

Before we arrive at the village we'll go for a short hike to try and spot the resident gibbons, these majestic creatures were released in the past as part of a rehabilitation project and now live in a secluded area known to only a few people.

We'll continue to journey up into Mae Kampong and enjoy a wander around the network of streets before the jungle hike begins. The hike takes you along a secluded 3km trail through the forest, which is seldom visited and not well known except to locals. We'll see one of the oldest trees in Chiang Mai, and the local guide will explain about the flora and fauna along the way. Then it's time for lunch before returning to the city!
