Hiking in Chiang Rai – One-Day Tour with Nature & Culture

Overview

Get ready to experience Hiking in Chiang Rai at its most authentic. This full-day hiking adventure leads you deep into the green heart of Lam Nam Kok National Park, where peaceful trails, tribal culture, and jungle waterfalls offer a perfect escape from the city.

Your day begins with a pickup around 9:00 AM. As you leave the city behind, the road winds through quiet countryside into Lam Nam Kok’s vast forest landscapes. The hike begins where the road ends—along shaded dirt paths surrounded by towering trees and vibrant green. Birds chirp, bamboo creaks, and fresh air fills your lungs.

The trail takes you through tea plantations and into Lisu, Chinese, Akha, and Lahu villages, each rich with culture and tradition. This isn’t staged tourism—it’s real-life interaction, where you might see villagers weaving, cooking, or working in the fields.

Midday, you’ll stop for a tranquil bamboo-cooked lunch served in the wild. After a restful break, continue hiking to the beautiful Huai Kaeo Waterfall, where cool jungle waters invite you to relax and refresh. The day wraps up at the Pong Phra Soet Hot Spring, a forest-side retreat where you can soak your feet or take a warm swim in mineral-rich waters before returning to town by early evening.

Chase waterfalls, meet hill tribes, and soak in jungle hot springs—book your Hiking in Chiang Rai tour today for the ultimate nature escape!
