3 Day Tour Pai and Pang Ung – An Epic Nature Journey

Tour Overview

Get ready to break free from the city and embrace Northern Thailand’s adventure playground with our 3 day tour Pai and Pang Ung. Designed for travelers who crave local insights and authentic landscapes, this journey takes you from Chiang Mai to stunning valleys, ethnic villages, and mist-covered lakes.

Day 1: The day starts with an 8 AM hotel pickup from Chiang Mai. Your first destination is Huay Nam Dang National Park, famous for its fresh mountain air, diverse wildlife, and panoramic viewpoints overlooking misty valleys.

Next, step back in time at the Pai Memorial Bridge, a relic from World War II with iron beams that frame dramatic river views. After lunch in Pai, delve into Yunnan culture at Santichon Village, where clay houses and tea tasting offer a glimpse into Chinese heritage.

For a little relaxation, soak in the Tha Pai Hot Spring and feel the healing power of mineral-rich waters—or if the season calls for it, take a splash at Mo Paeng Waterfall.

As sunset approaches, climb the steps to Wat Phra That Mae Yen. The panoramic view over Pai Valley, combined with the spiritual calm of the giant white Buddha, is unforgettable. If accessibility is a concern, an alternative viewpoint at Two Huts Pai will provide a beautiful, easier option.

Wrap up the day enjoying local street food and browsing colorful stalls at Pai Walking Street, before a restful night at the Yoma Hotel.

Day 2: Fuel up with an early breakfast for a day packed with adventure and scenic wonders. Head toward Pang Mapha, where your first highlight awaits—Tham Lod Cave. Experience the thrill of bamboo rafting through the cave’s underground river, led by local guides carrying lanterns. Inside, marvel at vast chambers filled with dramatic stalactites, ancient rock coffins, and towering limestone columns.

After emerging from the cave, recharge with a hearty lunch at a local eatery nearby. The journey continues with a visit to the beautiful Su Tong Pea Bridge, a hand-built bamboo bridge spanning lush rice fields. This bridge, created by monks and villagers, is not just a crossing but a symbol of faith and community spirit, set against a stunning mountain backdrop.

In the afternoon, enjoy the scenic drive to Pang Ung, known for its cool climate, pine forests, and tranquil lakeside views. Often called “Switzerland of Thailand,” Pang Ung invites you to stroll along lakeside trails, watch swans glide across the water, and breathe in the fresh highland air. Explore the Royal Project area or simply relax and let the peaceful atmosphere wash over you.

Spend the night at a charming lakeside homestay, drifting off to sleep surrounded by the sounds of nature.

Day 3: Wake early for a tranquil bamboo raft ride across the misty Pang Ung Reservoir. This peaceful start to the day is a highlight for photographers and nature lovers.

After breakfast, head to Phu Klon Country Club, where you can indulge in a natural black mud spa—a fun, skin-pampering stop often missed by other tours.

Next, drive to Ban Jabo, a Black Muser village perched on a mountain ridge. Enjoy a bowl of noodle soup while gazing over spectacular mountain ranges.

Before ending the tour, explore Pai Canyon, famous for its narrow red ridges and sweeping valley views—a must-see spot for sunset seekers and nature photographers.

By evening, you’ll arrive back in Chiang Mai around 7 PM, fulfilled, refreshed, and full of unforgettable memories from this Package Tours Chiang Mai to Mae Hong Son experience.
