Blessed with verdant mountain ranges, spectacular waterfalls and diverse communities of ethnic hill tribes, Mae Taeng is the ideal place to embark on a trekking expedition. This three-day trek takes you off the beaten path and into the depth of Mae Taeng’s wilderness, where you will have an opportunity to stay at different hill-tribe villages, namely Shan, Karen, Lahu, and learn about the tribe’s traditional culture and way of life. You will trek through the jungles on foot, as well as on the back of an elephant, then float down the river on a bamboo raft. Beginners may find this tour a little rough at times, while advanced trekkers will feel right at home.
