Itinerary
930 am hotel pickup brings us to "base camp", our shop in the center of Chiang Mai where we get fitted for bikes, helmets and gloves.
A short drive through Chiang Mai City puts us on the road up to Doi Suthep National Park
Our first stop of our Adventure are the Montha Than Waterfalls , A good hr of round trip walking the falls reminds us why we came to Chiang mai.
Giant highland trees and lush jungle provide shade as we hike the grounds. All senses are at peace as we take in the sounds of the forest. Take a swim , sure.
After refreshing at the waterfalls we bridge the gap of Altitude by Truck , 20 minutes later we find ourselfs at 1550 m elevation in Highland forest.
After our last leg by truck we are ready to saddle up and start riding our bikes downhill. Our first destination is the prominent Art village inhabited by the Hmong tribe near the summit. Waterfalls, gardens, Arts and Crafts stalls and its kind people keep us walking around the village grounds untill we are ready to continue our ride .
With the fresh air hitting our smiling faces we ride downhill on road through highland forest landscape. Not to long and we can already see the Temple from above , yes we stop to take pictures all the time. On arrival at Wat Suthep we park our bikes and muster the 300 stairs up to the Temple. Suthep Temple is unique, its location provides us with undisturbed views of Chiang Mai. If you want to limit the temples you are going to visit, this one needs to stay on your list.
Vegetarians are welcome, a hearty meal at altitute revives us and gets us ready for the main downhill ride to Chiang Mai
After lunch we are back in the saddle, yes its downhill and the views are great. with multible stops to admire the views we arrive at the ancient Pallad Temple nessled on the side of the mountain.
After we complete the downhill ride to Chiang Mai Zoo at the bottom of the hill we get shuttled throught the city back to our hotels. A day well spent.
