After an early morning start just outside Chiang Mai we drive to visit a beautiful waterfall that we can hike up. We begin our ride slowly as you get used to your bike on quiet country roads that take us through paddy fields, fruit orchards with backdrops of stunning mountains and on into the Sri Lanna National Park.
Get active and join us for an exciting day of cycling and kayaking in and around spectacular Sri Lanna National Park, located only an hour’s drive from Chiang Mai. After an early morning pick up we transfer to our cycle start at Buatong Waterfall. After a walk up the waterfall we begin our ride slowly as you get used to your bike on quiet country roads. We first cycle through a teak forest and then through paddy fields, fruit orchards with backdrops of stunning mountains. Once we near Sri Lanna National Park we’ll cycle across the impressive dam of the reservoir. Sri Lanna is comprised of valleys and mountains, endless number of streams that feed the 20-km-long Mae Ngad reservoir which in turn feeds the Mae Ping River. We’ll cycle approximately 20 km and finish at the reservoir where we take off our bike helmets and put on our life vests. A longtail boat whisks us across the lake to a floating restaurant for a lunch of Thai specialties. After we’re full we’ll launch our kayaks for the next phase of our adventure. We’ll paddle for about 45 minutes around Buffalo Island, named after the primary residents. We kayak back to the restaurant to have a swim and enjoy the afternoon. Too soon it’ll be time to head back as we end our active yet relaxing day.
Suited for all riders and great for families, we ride approximately 20 km on good quality roads with only small undulations. An air-con support vehicle will follow and provide water and fresh fruit.
