Yearning for a break from the city? Our one-day private trek from Chiang Mai is your perfect escape. This journey takes you to Mae Wang district, a haven of natural beauty and cultural richness.

Your day starts with an 8:30 am pick-up from your hotel in Chiang Mai. Enjoy the scenic drive to Mae Wang, which takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. Once there, step into Ban Huai Khao Lip. This Karen hill tribe village is your gateway to adventure.

Meet the locals and learn about their culture. Soon, you’ll begin your trek. Walk through mixed forests and paddy fields for about two hours. Your destination? A hidden waterfall. Swim, relax, and snap some photos before moving on.

A 20-minute walk brings you to Ban Pratu Mueang, another Karen village. Here, you’ll immerse yourself in the local culture. Help cook and taste traditional Karen dishes. Mingle with the villagers and then prepare for the next leg of your trek.

For two more hours, trek through bamboo and evergreen forests. Your efforts are rewarded with a visit to a second, equally stunning waterfall. Pause, soak in the tranquility, then trek for another hour to Mae Sapok village.

At Mae Sapok, you’ll be transferred to a rafting camp. Switch gears and enjoy 45 minutes of bamboo rafting. The gentle river and surrounding scenery make for a serene end to your adventure-filled day.

By 4:00 pm, it’s time to head back to Chiang Mai. You’ll arrive at your hotel around 5:00 pm, bringing a day full of nature, culture, and adventure to a close.
