What To Expect

Doi Saket

This is a challenging hiking trail, requiring good physical fitness and a strong spirit of adventure, but it’s well worth it. The day starts at a small mountain village. you will be briefed on the day ahead. The guide will tell you about the villagers’ lives and explain about the use of local herbs which you will be able to pick, smell and taste. You will walk up and down hills through the unspoiled, dense jungle. Admire 100-year-old trees and listen to the birds. Climb over the rocks to cross the stream where you will have lunch; then climb up a purpose-built wooden ladder to a secluded waterfall, where you can shower under the spray. On the way back, you will cross the stream again over a fallen tree, which serves as a natural bridge, walk among bamboo and wild bananas trees. Finish the hike in the village where you will try exotic fruits, herbal tea or local coffee, before we take you back to your hotel after a wonderful day.

A great days hike off the beaten track immersed in the jungle. We were a small group and we had 4 very good guides (3 local). We were introduced to herbs and plants as we walked and had some challenges using bamboo bridges to cross/ climb to the waterfall which I enjoyed. Excellent communication pre trip and picked up on time which as a solo traveller I really appreciated 😊

Joined the tour as a solo traveller. Both Troy and Mr Yo took great care of our group. From letting us take frequent breaks during a challenging uphill climb to helping us down during the descent. Some parts of the hike are challenging but the guides are there to help. Don’t worry about having the take photos/vids as well; the guides consistently help to take photos/vids and will share them with you at the end of the tour. Really enjoyed the show-and-tell parts of the tour as well when Troy shared more about the forest. Lunch was delicious and filling. The 3 dogs that followed us throughout the trip were also adorable and happy to receive pets. 😂 Highly recommend this tour. Just make sure you bring good shoes, at least 1.5 litres of water, insect repellent and don’t be shy to take one of the hiking bamboo sticks the guides offer.

I highly recommend this activity to those who love sports and outdoor adventures! It was a completely new experience, hiking in a pristine forest with mountains, rivers, and even the opportunity to swim in a natural waterfall, haha! I got to know many plants and trees that I had never seen before and also got a great workout. I would like to specially thank the two instructors who were incredibly dedicated and responsible, prioritizing our safety to ensure we had a great time. Additionally, I absolutely loved the lunch box prepared for us，so delicious!
Troy was very punctual...

Troy was very punctual with the pick-up and drove safely and efficiently. During the hike, two of our group members struggled a bit because their shoes weren’t suitable for the terrain and slipped occasionally. Huge thanks to Troy and another guide for lending a helping hand from time to time. As a guide, Troy shared extensive jungle knowledge throughout the journey. What’s even more amazing is that, despite it being a Sunday, we surprisingly didn’t encounter any other groups 😂. It felt like a solo expedition, and we even had a rare encounter with Thailand’s 7th-ranked green snake during the Year of the Snake. It was an incredibly fulfilling and eventful day!

The best experience I had. I was looking for a truly jungle hiking, non touristic deep in the nature. That’s what I got. Beyond my expectations even. Troy is an excellent guide. Explained us all about plants, we smelled and tastes various herbs, he brought us through the jungle and you can see that he is an expert. Totally recommended for a non touristic authentic hiking in the real jungle. And the places were beautiful!

This was an amazing yet very challenging hike. If you want to experience remote jungle, with the site and sounds of pure nature, this is the hike for you . The waterfall trek and dip was the dessert of fairly challenging hike. Definitely recommended for the off the beaten path experience.

This is a truly pristine jungle trekking through unspoiled vast mountain area, I just immersed myself in lush greenery, birds chirping, creeks babbling… My most memorable and best experiences in Chiang Mai. Yes, it was a little bit struggling while trudging along some of the steep slopes , sometimes even invisible; however it was really rewarding when you finally embrace the amazing waterfalls. Troey is an incredible guide who was so passionate, caring and informative along the entire tour. I strongly recommend people with adventurous mind, who savor authentic nature to explore such a rare trekking route.
Great jungle adventure!!

We had an amazing day with this tour! Our guides Troy and Jo were very nice and explained us many interesting facts about the local plants and animals. We could even taste several herbs that grow in the mountain. The hike itself was beautiful, we really went into the untouched jungle and were surrounded by large trees and even monkeys. At some points the path was quite steep and challenging but it was doable and no problem to take a break every now and then. Also, it was so fun to sometimes cross the river on bamboo bridges that Troy built himself! The lunch and waterfall shower were a delicious and refreshing break. After the hike, we were surprised with fruits and coffee! Thankyou for the nice day!!
