Mini-Multisport Chiang Mai Adventure

📍 Cycling: Approximately 60 km Difficulty: Easy Transfer from Bua Thong Falls to Hotel: 20 min

Today is the perfect day to start your mini-multisport Adventure! Enjoy a good breakfast at the hotel while your guide will meet you at the lobby with the bicycles. We help you load your luggage in the back-up vehicle while we start cycling directly from the hotel. Cross the Chiang Mai roads before rush hours starts and enjoy seeing the city waking up. Within a short time, we’re heading out of the city where the houses become smaller and the buildings lower. Along the way you will already see the occasional rice paddy randomly situated between houses and neighborhoods.

As we ride on, there will be more abundant rice paddies and fruit orchards while houses become less and less. After a while, we will reach Mae Kuang Dam, a dam made to save water for the farmers in the area. Cycling over the dam ridge while stopping at the lookout point to soak up the sights and enjoy the scenery. Lunch will be somewhere along the way today. 

We pass the bridge over the dam and cycle for another while before we reach our end destination for today. It’s time to hop on the bikes and get some refreshment. Our driver is already waiting for you at the “sticky waterfalls” so you can change into your swimmers before we cool down in the fresh waterfalls made out of a non-sticky limestone which makes it easy and lots of fun to climb up on. Hike up to the 7 colored natural spring of the waterfall and simply enjoy the area before having a short transfer to our hotel. Dinner will be at the hotel.

After breakfast, we take a short minivan ride to Mae Ngat Dam where we will hop on the long tail boat for a 20-minute boat ride across the lake bringing us to a floating restaurant where we will board the kayaks and explore the lakes corners. 

With a little luck we’ll spot some wildlife along the way while paddling and enjoying the morning time. Head back to the raft restaurant for a delicious lunch before going to the shore again by long tail boat. From there, the bikes will be ready and waiting for us. While cycling through the beautiful nature scenery, have a stop at Wat Ban Den, a stunning temple amidst the rice fields, famous by locals who travel from far to make merit here. We cycle throughout the afternoon only to reach our hotel just on time for dinner and relaxation. 

Tuck in early tonight as tomorrow we don’t have wheels nor water but just our legs to move us ahead.

Have a transfer further out today heading up into the mountains of Huay Nam Dung. We’ll load up on some supplies along the way before we’re starting our trek. We’ll start walking through a local hill-tribe village and pass along heading into nature. We’re having about 9 km to cover today by foot, passing several hills, villages and maybe some wildlife along the way. Lunch will be in the jungle. As we keep on trekking, we’ll have some stunning views along the way before we reach the final stop of today. A local hill tribe village. 

Meet our hosts, help them with cooking or simply have a stroll through the village. Enjoy being in a completely different culture, learning about their life’s and the sounds of nature.

📍 Trekking: approximately 1.5 hours Bamboo rafting: Approximately 2-3 hours Difficulty: Easy

Wake up to the sounds of nature. It’s always something special, waking up in a local village high up in the mountains. Enjoy a local breakfast made by your hosts before packing up your bag and start trekking. Today the trek will be easier as we ascend down the mountains. 

Once down we have a short transfer to the local river where we pop onto a bamboo raft for a leisurely float down the river. Depending on the season, the level of adrenaline will be affected by the rain fallen in the weeks before and it can be from a very leisurely float down to an exhilarating experience.     

We’ll have lunch somewhere along the way today and after the bamboo rafting we’re heading back to Chiang Mai where we will bring you to your preferred hotel.
