We cycle along the river to the Chiang Mai Doll Museum. It houses a stunning collection of dolls from all over the world and a small factory where they produce beautiful dolls.

Ruins of Wiang Tha Kan

We continue to the ruins of Wiang Tha Kan, dating back to the 12th century. Here your bike ride finishes. We will have lunch at a local restaurant before we drive to the starting point of our trekking. Here you can find more about the history and background of hill tribe trekking in Chiang Mai. This afternoon we will walk uphill and are rewarded with magnificent views.

Morning Trekking through the forest

After a short walk, we will see our trekking truck parked along the road. Drive to the private house where we will have lunch.
Bamboo Rafting
After lunch, we will drive to a small rafting camp, and our bamboo rafts will await us. Enjoy a relaxing and, at times, exciting bamboo raft trip for about 45 minutes on the Wang River. After this, we board our trekking truck to drive back to Chiang Mai.
