The Experience

Before You Go

Footwear matters

Closed‑toe hiking or trail shoes give traction for wet platforms and ATV controls; sandals are not recommended.

Hydrate and pace

Carry water between stations even though bottled water is provided; Thailand’s heat adds fatigue quickly.

Weight & health limits

Follow operator weight and health guidelines—zipline and ATV have restrictions and aren’t recommended for pregnant guests or those with back problems.

Pack a dry change

Bring a small towel and a fresh top for the return ride—zipline and waterfall lunch can leave you damp.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Pong Yeang viewpoint for sunrise mountain panoramas beyond Mae Rim
  • Small weaving stalls near Long‑neck village offering hand‑dyed textiles and locally made snacks

Wildlife

  • Long‑tailed macaques
  • Various hornbills and sunbirds in the canopy

Conservation Note

Support operators that prioritize non‑riding elephant experiences and local craft economies; the paper park repurposes waste and promotes awareness over exploitation.

Northern Chiang Mai’s ridges were historically a mix of hill‑tribe agriculture and teak extraction; modern routes now prioritize eco‑tourism and community crafts.
