Itinerary

180 min

Visit the beautiful Wachirathan waterfall, one of the highlights of Doi Inthanon National Park and the most impressive of all the waterfalls in Chiang Mai. Because of the incredible height, the waterfall creates a mist in the surrounding, making it a picturesque sight. Together with the mossy rocks and emerald water it gives this place a magical atmosphere. There’s a colorful rainbow appearing in front of the waterfall every time the sun is shining through the mist which makes it a very photogenic spot. The duration included traveling time from Chiangmai to Doi Inthanon. Total time includes traveling time from one place to the other place.

60 min

Sirithan Waterfall is a spectacular sight where the waters of the Mae Klang River cascade down a dramatic rock cliff before joining the river below. The waterfall is surrounded by lush greenery, with dense forests framing the rushing water, creating a serene and picturesque setting. While visitors cannot approach the base of the waterfall, it can be admired from a scenic viewpoint, allowing you to appreciate the full height and power of the cascading water as it tumbles gracefully down the cliff. This vantage point also offers excellent photo opportunities, capturing the waterfall’s natural beauty against the backdrop of the highland forests and misty mountain landscape. Total time includes traveling time from one place to the other.

These mirrored buildings sit atop the mountain and are surrounded by manicured flower gardens with jaw-dropping views of the valley below.

60 min

Take a short and easy nature walk along the Ang Ka Nature Trail, a wooden platform path suitable for everyone, and discover the unique flora and forest that thrive at this high altitude in Doi Inthanon National Park. This is not a long or strenuous hike through the rainforest, but a gentle stroll where you can fully enjoy the magical surroundings. The dense, mossy, and lush forest is alive with color and life all year round, offering a peaceful and refreshing escape into nature. Along the trail, you’ll encounter a variety of authentic flora and fauna. Every step brings new sights, sounds, and scents of this remarkable highland environment, making it a wonderful opportunity for photography and simply immersing yourself in nature. The easy walk allows you to take your time, breathe in the crisp mountain air, and marvel at the beauty of Thailand’s highlands. Total time includes traveling time from one place to the other.

180 min

Visit the Karen village Baan Mae Klang Luang, named after the Mae Klang river. Nestled in the stunning mountainous setting of Doi Inthanon, this village is surrounded by brilliant green forests, lush rice terraces and verdant coffee fields. In Mae Klang Luang, opium cultivation was the main source of income not too long ago. The Thai government has fought against opium farming among the hill tribes of Northern Thailand for decades, and nowadays the local population earns most of their income from farming, supplemented by tourism. Baan Mae Klang Luang is well known for its coffee crop. Of course you are welcome to sample the locally grown and freshly roasted coffee. Please note that the duration includes travel time between the various stops within the park, and also from Doi Inthanon National Park back to Chiang Mai.

Great experience!

Tik was a great guide to follow. He knows a lot about his country and shares it with passion. His perfect english makes the trip very confortable as well. The sites are well selected and the all tour is a good way to discover the country side around Chiang Mai. With the car mainly, and some walks, not more than 10mins. Kop kun Krap 🙏

Doi Inthanon from Chiang Mai

Suzy, our guide, was fantastic, she was very informative, friendly, warm, and kind. The driver drove safely and the vehicle was also very comfortable. The tour was an excellent combination of nature, village, and cultural activities. Listen to suggestions regarding a light sweater and possible mist or rain. Highly recommend for a day trip from Chiang Mai.
