Top Trekking Hiking in Northern Thailand

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.

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!
