Discover Doi Inthanon, 'Roof of Thailand', on a full-day adventure. Explore lush forests, waterfalls, and the King and Queen Pagodas. Visit a Karen village, enjoy nature walks, and savour local coffee.
Embark on a full-day tour to Doi Inthanon, Thailand's highest peak at 2,565 metres above sea level, also known as the ‘Roof of Thailand’. Departing from Chiang Mai, this excursion showcases the natural beauty of Northern Thailand's highest mountain. Visit an impressive waterfall, a hill tribe village, and the stunning twin King and Queen Royal Pagodas. Enjoy a relaxing nature trail walk before reaching the peak.
Your local guide will pick you up from central Chiang Mai in the early morning and drive to Doi Inthanon National Park. This breathtaking area offers a serene escape from the city's hustle and bustle, with lush forests and diverse wildlife, including over 300 bird species and several endangered mammals.
En route, visit the King and Queen chedis, two beautiful pagodas honouring Thailand's former monarchs. Perched atop the mountain, these mirrored structures are surrounded by manicured gardens with stunning valley views.
Explore the beautiful Wachirathan waterfall, the most impressive in Chiang Mai province. The waterfall's height creates a mist, adding to its picturesque charm. The moss-covered rocks and emerald water create a magical atmosphere, with a colourful rainbow often appearing in the mist when the sun shines through.
Near the summit, take a short nature walk among the unique flora and forest at this altitude. The surroundings are magical, with dense, mossy, lush forests all year round. Discover wild orchids, indigenous plants, and rare bird species along the easy walking trail.
Visit the Karen village of 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. Learn about the village's history and sample locally grown coffee.
In the afternoon, return to Chiang Mai, where you will be dropped off at the meeting point.
