Trekking in Chiangmai
Chiangmai is a city built on the roots of a traditional heritage that digs deep into the soil of time. For tourists, the name Chiangmai brings to mind a tranquil and fascinating land with beautiful ladies and colorful flowers plus a rich culture and diverse tradition.

Named "Rose of the North" for the abundance of flowers that thrive in its cooler mountain climate, Chiangmai has grown from its origin as a small northern Lanna capital to become a city representative of modern Thai culture. The people themselves are an unforgettable part of Chiangmai.

Handicrafts made from silk, silver and wood are timeless souvenirs for visitors to take home. Along with all this, a wide variety of accommodations, restaurants and entertainment establishments helps make Chiangmai one of Thailand's prime tourist attractions.

Chiangmai is 700 kilometers north of Bangkok and is nestled in a valley 310 meters (1,027 feet) above sea level. There are mountains all around the valley rising to heights of more than 2,500 meters. The highest mountain is Doi Inthanon which, at 2,565 meters, is Thailand's highest peak.

Chiangmai has a cooler and drier climate than other parts of Thailand. It has three main seasons : cool (late October to mid-February); summer (late February to May) and rainy (June to October). Average temperatures are 21 degrees Centigrade during the cool season; 30 degrees Centigrade during summer; and 25 degrees Centigrade during the rainy season.

Just to the north of Chiangmai lies the sleepy town of Pai surrounded by mountains, jungles and hill tribes and this is where our trekking tours take place.
