Very varied trail. Difficulty level for me as a 77 year old just at the limit. Our guide was approachable and very knowledgeable. On the trail we were also accompanied by a resident Karen who pointed out snakes several times. Although not included in the tour, our guide also took us to Doi Inthanon.

Loved this hiking trip. It was mostly downhill, and saw beautiful waterfalls and rice paddys. Our guide was wonderful and we had a delicious ‘Thai Spice’ lunch at the end of the walk.
