Explore the Northern hills of Thailand, which were once rife with merchants using the popular trade route in ancient times. Today the area is visited by trekkers out to enjoy the misty hillsides of Mae Hong Son and Chiang Mai. Typically the trek should start in Chiang Mai, each day you will trek for about six to eight hours across beautiful ridges, down into tranquil valleys and up again into the misty folds of the Chiang Mai hillsides. There you can visit the traditional village of Huay Hee Karen; home to nomadic hill tribes. Spend the night in a traditional hut and chat to the tribe about hills, traditions and customs of the people. The trek takes about eight days and is dosed with loads of culture at the various villages, as well as, fabulous vistas of the surroundings.
