Tour Itinerrary : We pick up from your hotel at 08.00 - 08.30 am by your guide.Drive south of Chiang Mai for approx. 1 hr to the town of Chomtong. Close to this town we turn off the road into the Doi Inthanon National Park. Then drive up to the top of Doi Inthanon (another 50kms approx.) - at the top you can see the twin chedis commemorating the birthdays of the King and Queen of Thailand, as well as take a walk to see the unique flora of the area. Because of the high altitude the flora is noticeably different from that at lower altitudes. It is also the only place where you will see rhododendrons growing in Thailand.On the way down from the summit stop to see the Mae Klang waterfall and a Karen hilltribe village. Also explore the local agricultural research station which grows and experiments with crops that can be grown in the area then drive back to Chiang Mai city.
