Your guide will meet you at the hotel at 0730 for your Chiang Mai: Hiking the Forest Trails of Mae Kampong and Chaesorn National Park. Drive to Mae Kampong, a village in the mountains surrounding Chiang Mai. Upon arrival in Mae Kampong, our local guide will meet us. By local truck we will drive up to the ranger station of Chaesorn National Park. Here we will start our trek up to the summit of Doi Mon Lan. It will take about one hour. The trail is not too steep. Pine trees and dipterocarp trees cover the area around the summit. It’s a beautiful mossy forest. First, we reach the lower peak and then the summit. At the top of the mountain, we will rest for a while and enjoy the spectacular view. Then we start our descent. We pass several viewpoints on the way down to Mae Kampong. The forest is lush and pristine. Pace will be slow, so there is plenty of time for photo stops. We will enjoy a picknick lunch along the way. After we have reached Mae Kampong, there is time to explore the village and meet some of the villagers. Most of them are engaged in growing bai miang. Late in the afternoon, we return to Chiang Mai. We will drop you off at the hotel.
