Overnight Mae Taeng Valley cycling and waterfall
2 days
About this activity
Itinerary:
DAY 1 - Cycling discovery of the Mae Taeng valley
08:30 – 08:45 Pick-up from your Chiang Mai hotel and transfer by air-condition vehicle to the Mae Taeng valley (1 hour's drive) to reach the activity base and our overnight place. After fitting the bikes and program explanation,
your adventure begins with a bike ride through picturesque countryside where farmers go about their daily routine. Your guide will make stops at various points of interest and give you further insight into local life. Return along country roads for a delicious Thai lunch and some relaxation at the hotel. Afternoon you will have the opportunity to learn about rice cultivation, and perhaps get a hand-on with harvesting or plant rice. After this farming experience we hop on the bikes for an
afternoon cycling loop through countryside, with a visit of a local market, and an
impressive Temple where you can admire the intricate details of this stunning place of worship. Cycle back to the hotel for overnight and dinner. (Accommodation in air-conditioned rooms).
Day 2 - Cycling and Waterfall
After breakfast, you will enjoy another bike ride, with a mix of off road trails sections and flat, paved country roads. Then we tackle a small hill, leading us to the dam's head, for a stunning view of the lake, sprawling within the
Sri Lanna National Park. We cycle back to the hotel where we end our ride with another delicious Thai lunch. We bid farewell to our cycling guides and take a short vehicle transfer to the
nearby Buatong waterfall. Relax and refresh in the water, and for the more adventurous, you will have the
option to hike in the jungle (1 to 1 1/2 hour). The waterfall can be safely climbed due to the sticky limestone formation in the water, and this is always a must do for youngsters and adults alike. After the waterfall fun, we drive back to Chiang Mai (approx. one hour's + drive) and drop you off at your hotel in the city. (Arrival usually around 5pm, depending of traffic condition).
PLEASE NOTE: This program is subject to changes, in routes and distances, depending on season and other factors, but the concept of the trip remain the same.
