Kew Mae Pan Nature Trail

My advice is to wear good hiking shoes, the trail has some steep parts and can get muddy. Trust me, you don’t want to slip and miss those amazing views!

I recommend starting your hike early like around 7 AM to beat the crowds and enjoy the cooler weather. The views are gorgeous in the morning light!
X Centre Chiang Mai
Wat Chaloem Phra Kiat Phrachomklao Rachanusorn
Phu Thap Boek Mountain

Pack some snacks and plenty of water. There are fewer shops along the trails than I expected, and I got a bit hungry.

Wear good hiking shoes. The trails can be rocky and slippery, and I almost took a tumble. I wish I'd brought my hiking boots instead of regular shoes

Bring cash for entrance and local vendors because not all places accept cards. I was caught off guard, and it limited my options.
Doi Ang Khang
Pong Horse Park

I recommend booking your ride ahead of time, especially on weekends. I went without a reservation and had to wait quite a while, which was a bummer.

It was super hot when I visited at noon, so I suggest going early in the morning around 8 AM. You'll beat the heat and enjoy the fresh air.

My advice is to try the sunset ride if you can! The views are breathtaking and the weather is cooler. Bring a light jacket though, it can get chillier than you expect.
Phu Chi Fa

Bring plenty of water and some snacks. The hike can be more challenging than it looks, and it's nice to refuel when you need a break. I wish I'd brought better snacks.

If you're on a budget, consider staying at local guesthouses instead of hotels. They’re cheaper and give you a better feel for the local culture, plus you might meet some cool fellow travelers!

I suggest starting your hike really early, around 4 AM. You'll beat the crowds and catch the stunning sunrise without the rush. The view is absolutely worth it!
Montana Horse Riding & Sport Club
The Arrow Rest
Nam Lod Cave

I recommend bringing a pair of good water shoes, as you might have to navigate through some wet areas. I wish I had worn mine instead of slippery flip-flops that day!

I suggest visiting during the early morning right when it opens at 8 AM. You can beat the crowds and enjoy the tranquility of the cave before it gets busier.

If you're planning on taking photos, make sure to have a good flashlight or headlamp. The dim lighting makes it tricky to capture the beauty of the cave without one.
