For many visitors to Doi Inthanon National Park, this trek is the highlight of the day. A local Karen guide will lead you (mostly downhill) through forest and farmland to her village. The forest walk follows the course of the Mae Klang river that supplies the village and farms with water.
Between the rice fields you will see hillsides full of irrigated strawberries, and close to the village you will walk past coffee plantations.
If you would like to take a quick swim, there is a good swimming location just below the waterfall. This is not possible after heavy rain – your local guide will advise if swimming is safe. If you plan to swim, we suggest you bring a small towel to make the 2nd half of the walk more comfortable.
The walk takes between 90 minutes and 2 hours, When you reach Mae Klang Luang village at the end, you can sample some of the local coffee that is roasted and ground on site.
