Tour Itinerary:
From Chiang Mai to Baan Pa-Low
Begin your journey with hotel pickup in Chiang Mai and a scenic drive north (~45 km), stopping at a local market to select fresh ingredients for your homestay meals. Continue driving for about an hour before starting your afternoon trek.
Enjoy lunch in a nearby village, then set off on a 4-hour forest hike along the peaceful Tiger Trail. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty and mountain views as you make your way to Baan Pa-Low, a Black Lahu hill-tribe village.
Meet the local community and experience their way of life. A warm “A-BO-YA” (hello, thank you, goodbye) goes a long way in connecting with your hosts.
As twilight falls over the mountainside, take in the serene views before enjoying a freshly prepared dinner at your homestay. Settle in for the night and embrace the quiet rhythms of village life.
Trekking to Tea and Coffee Plantations - Tree-house
After breakfast, enjoy a short village tour before packing your bags and setting off on today’s trek. This is a full day of walking, so wear sturdy footwear—mountain trails can be slippery, especially in the rain.
The trek leads past rice fields and plantations of tea and coffee, offering insight into local farming life. You’ll cross streams, pass waterfalls, and climb through lush forested hills. After around 4 hours, stop for a jungle lunch beside a secluded waterfall, where you’re welcome to swim or slide down the smooth rock face shaped by nature.
Continue trekking for another 2 hours until you reach Ban Mae Mae, a remote village where you can rest and meet the local community. Donations are welcome at the village orphanage, which supports children from across Northern Thailand. The day ends at a stunning forest treehouse, your home for the night. Take a refreshing shower, unwind, and enjoy a home-cooked dinner with your host family. Overnight at
the treehouse, surrounded by nature and mountain silence.
Mae Nga Dam - Chiang Mai (B/L/-)
After breakfast, descend into the lowlands and begin cycling toward the scenic Mae Ngag Dam. Enjoy spectacular views along the way, with stops at rice fields, flower gardens, and fruit orchards to sample fresh local produce. Continue biking through peaceful countryside to visit the stunning yet little-known Baan Den Temple. End the ride and transfer back to your hotel in Chiang Mai.
