BIKE #13 2 DAY HIKE & BIKE SUTHEP NATIONAL PARK 5700฿

Day 1 of our adventure. We are hiking up to the old Hmong hill tribe village, located at the summit of Doi Pui National Park, at an elevation of 1400 meters. The hike takes us through the breathtaking highland jungle, with the magnificent primary "Mai Yai" tree, which is indigenous to this area. We walk steadily for three hours and finally arrive at our destination, which is a coffee plantation located near the Hmong Hill tribe village.

After reaching the plantation, we have enough time to explore the village or climb up to the summit of Doi Pui, which is at an elevation of 1650 meters. If the weather is clear, we can enjoy the spectacular views of the Mae Ping valley. We spend the night at the coffee plantation huts, which are basic but clean and provide all amenities.

Day 2 of our adventure. After having breakfast, we find our bikes and gear waiting for us. We start our descent from the National Park, which is at an elevation of 1400 meters. We ride our bikes through the plantations and the magical forest, with several viewpoints that offer ample views of Lake Huay Tung Tao, which is at an elevation of 370 meters.

Unlike the hike up, gravity rewards us on this ride down with cool breezes and stunning views of the Mae Ping valley. We stop for a proper lunch and cool drinks at the lake. Don't forget to bring your swimsuit! After that, we will take a lazy truck ride back to the city, which is just 20 minutes away.
