The highlight of this tour is the wilderness of the Doi Angkhang mountain range and later the Mae Kok River Valley, which flows through the northern provinces of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. You will spend both nights at a simple, but very unique and nice resort. The Huai Khum Resort is built with bamboo and is located in middle of the picturesque mountain wilderness on the banks of the Kok River. Enjoy the beautiful nature, take some walks along the river and visit nearby villages. But it is also a perfect place just to relax. Beside the swimming pool next to the river you will not always get the usual and modern hotel comfort, but friendly people and be close to nature.
