Flight of the Gibbon
is a one day travel about three hours in the canopy on cables and bridges, one hour trekking alongside Mae Kompong waterfall, about one hour having time for lunch and visiting the village. Add 45 minutes to one hour travel time each way. Allow 7 hours from pick up time.
Included in Flight of the Gibbon is a visit to the unique village of Mae Kompong where time has stood still. Once a poppy growing area and a bastion of hill tribes, it is now home to a small community of forest dwellers who cultivate tea and coffee plantations. Experience the culture of the local people who are ready to show you the way of life from a bygone era. Hang out in the tea house and shoot the breeze or stay overnight and sample traditional cooking and crafts
Flight of the Gibbon also included is a trip to the stunning Kompong falls where you can relax in the cool fresh water or take an optional trek deep into the forest.
The pristine village of Mae Kompong lies just 45 minutes southeast of Chiang Mai. Neighbouring two national parks-the Jair Son Park and the Mae Dakrai National Park. With the little way of development the surrounding ecosystem remains incredibly intact and is recognized as a hotspot of biodiversity. At 1,300 m. above sea level this hill station is commonly 4-5 celcius degree cooler than Chiang Mai- what better way to cool down while you're having fun!
