Lying south of Chiangmai, the granite mass of Doi Inthanon, at 8,500 feet above sea level, is the highest mountain in the country. Designated as a national park, the moist natural environment is habitat to a large species of birds, animals, flowers and fauna. After a final steep climb, the summit is surprisingly flat though misty, cold and windy. Visit the pagodas built in honour of their Majesties the King and Queen. A visitors' center contains information in Thai and English. A small chedi above the visitors' center contains the remains of Chao Inthawichayanon who died in 1897, the last independent ruler of Chiangmai, before the Kingdom of Lanna was incorporated into Siam. Enjoy the cool cascading waters of Mae Klang and Vachiratharn waterfalls. Visit a Meo hilltribe village which is a Royal sponsored project, and a poor Karen hilltribe village. Lunch is included. ( The drive up to the top of the mountain is exhilarating. Sweaters or warm jackets should be taken along as it can be extremely cold at the top. ) Tour Included |
