Program
Day 1
You ride with an experienced tour leader and guide along forest trails, short single tracks, and paved roads to the lush green Phrao Valley which is surrounded by the mountains of the Sri Lanna National Park.
The Mae Kuang Dam and the Teak Forests of Pa Sak Ngam are on your route today. After lunch in a country typical food stall, you will enjoy a ride along various trails in the hilly farmland with countless mango and longan trees to finally arrive in Phrao, a small town, where you will stay for the night.
Depending on your pace, you can visit some of the completely unknown scenic places or unique temples around Phrao after checking in at your hotel.
Day 2
In the morning the program is chosen according to your abilities and conditions of the trails. You can ride to an authentic hilltribe village in the mountains north of the valley with traditional bamboo houses built in a tiny valley on the banks of a small river or on the summit of the Doi Mon Lan, with 1695 meters over sea level the highest peak in the Khun Tan Range.
The 80-kilometer trip to the mountain top can be done 50 / 50 on dirt and tarmac or only on tarmac. Phrao Outdoor Adventure guarantee for stunning views! For your lunch break, you will ride back to a restaurant in Phrao again.
The trip back to Chiang Mai begins on trails across hills and farmland again that take you to the southern end of the Phrao Valley. Here you will get on the paved, quiet main road, which you will follow for around 25 kilometers to the stunning Buatong Waterfalls.
