Difficulty Level: 

This two day trip takes place very close to Chiang Mai but really brings you back in time. You will stay at a still very traditional Hmong village and really take part in village life. The hiking is absolutely awesome. A local Hmong guide will accompany us and explain about the history of these tribesmen and their interaction with their environment. You will pass former opium fields, enjoy magnificent vistas, collect seeds of trees which benefits the tree planting program of the village and participate in and learn about local life in this village. Two days of cultural immersion. We drive back through the Mae Sa Valley. On the way back we visit the Mae Sa Elephant Camp. We will visit some of their elephants, feed them some snacks. Your guide will tell you about the Asian Elephant and there will be time for pictures. Final stop will be the Elephant Poopoopaper Park, a very interesting place!

Please note that we enforce a strict dress code in the village and the use of alcohol during the homestay is not allowed.We only will eat meals with ingredients that are available in the village. Don’t worry. You will enjoy the food.
