Hiking in Thailand’s Remote Wilderness
Adventuring out on a nature trail in one of the most remote locations in the country
Birds are singing, cicadas chirping, and insects humming. Now and then a leaf is tumbling down from the high treetops. The forest is buzzing. Full of life. But no signs of humans. Just our footsteps are to be heard rustling on the foliage of the forest floor.
We’re hiking on a nature trail in one of Thailand’s most remote regions bordering Laos. The Nan Province is located far North of the country and is characterized by the Nan River Valley which is surrounded by two massive mountain ranges.
On the eastern side of the province, the Luang Prabang Range raises up to 2,000 meters into the sky. Part of the mountains was declared a National Park in 1999 in an effort to protect its virgin rainforest.
Doi Phu Kha National Park was the park I stumbled upon in my research. While I barely found any information on it, I decided we had to go and explore this remote area.
