Explore Chiang Mai's natural beauty by following the trails, lanes, and river, just as the ancients did, the natural, gravity assisted and body powered.
Our journey begins at the base of Suthep Mountain, just above the city.
We'll follow the monk trail and embark on a modest climb up to Wat Pa Lat Temple.
This 45-minute hike will get our hearts pumping and leave us breathless when we reach the stunning views of Chiang Mai City from the elevated altitude.
The hike to the Pa-lat temple provides us with an opportunity to experience the Buddhist traditional pilgrimage to Wat Suthep, as Wat Pa Lat was built as a main resting stop for traveling monks.
At the temple, our bikes will be waiting for us, and we'll enjoy a rewarding downhill ride into the valley. After a well-deserved break, we'll pick up a bike lane and ride 10 km to Lake Huay Tueng Tao. Upon arrival, we'll take a customary trip around the lake before enjoying a leisurely lunch break by the water. You'll even have the chance to go for a swim in the lake at this time.
Once we've recharged, we'll prepare to tackle the Ping River by kayak, marveling once again at the lush greenery as we paddle into the heart of Chiang Mai, just as ancient traders did for centuries to reach the old city with their wares.
This nearly two-hour paddle will leave you feeling relaxed and ready for your planned evening activities. It's an excellent way to experience the green side of Chiang Mai City.
