2 Days Hiking in Chiang Rai: Forest, Falls & Tribal Hospitality
Overview
If you’re the kind of traveler who likes your journeys to be real, unfiltered, and full of local flavor, then this 2 Days Hiking in Chiang Rai experience is made for you. I’ve done it myself—and trust me, it’s the perfect mix of light trekking, culture, and connection. It’s not too intense, but it’s definitely not your average tour either.
Day 1
We kicked off the trip at 9:00 AM, picked up right from the hotel in Chiang Rai. After a short drive, we stopped at an Elephant Camp where we got to feed and interact with the elephants (no riding, just bonding). After lunch, the hike began—about 7 kilometers through shady trails in Lam Nam Kok National Park.
The highlight? Reaching the Lisu village in the afternoon. You’re greeted with warm smiles, and staying overnight is like stepping into another rhythm of life. No frills, just real people and real peace.
Day 2
After waking to birdsong and a simple village breakfast, we hiked past a misty tea plantation, then stopped for a truly memorable bamboo-cooked lunch in the jungle—simple, flavorful, and totally unique.
Next, we cooled off at Huai Kaeo Waterfall, a great break before heading to meet the Akha and Lahu tribes. We finished the hike at Pong Phra Soet Hot Spring, where I soaked my tired feet while reflecting on the past two days. Back in Chiang Rai by 4:00 PM, feeling calm, connected, and kind of amazed.
