Itinerary
Leave the city behind and journey into the green embrace of Lam Nam Kok National Park on this full-day experience from Chiang Rai downtown. As the road winds through rolling hills, you’ll begin to see how nature and culture live side by side in northern Thailand. Trek for around 5 hours along jungle and bamboo trails where forest paths naturally lead to Lisu, Chinese, Akha, and Lahu hill tribe villages. Here, daily life unfolds in harmony with the land—wooden homes surrounded by farmland, tea leaves growing on mountain slopes, traditions shaped by nature’s rhythm. Continue to Huai Kaeo Waterfall for a refreshing swim beneath cool mountain waters. Share a meaningful moment as you cook lunch over firewood in a traditional bamboo hut with your local guide, then unwind in the mineral waters of Pha Soet Hot Spring. With small-group travel, guide, lunch, hot spring access, and round-trip transfers included, everything is thoughtfully arranged for you. One day, countless experiences—trek, learn, cook, swim, and soak. A well-rounded journey designed to make the most of your time in Chiang Rai.
