Wild Adventures: Doi Saket Hidden Jungle Trek & Waterfall

Excellent hiking trip off the beaten track! Our guide is an experienced outdoor and wildlife guide and introduced us to many wild plants and animals. The packed lunch prepared was tasty and home-cooked. Thanks!

I am so happy that I chose this trip! If you like hiking in pristine nature and you want to learn something about local trees and flowers, this trip is exactly for you! Five hours hiking, including a lunch in the rainforest and a shower under a waterfall. I can just recomend it to everyone!

The guides were extremely knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna. The hike started in a quaint village with lots of interesting plants and fruits. It included some nice views along a ridge and the high light was the waterfall that you could enter. Lots of great trees as well: banyun, rubber, palms etc. I was worried the hiking would be very tame, but it was actually quite exciting, especially getting up to the waterfall with bamboo ladders etc. Good footwear is a must! We didn't encounter anyone else on our hike.

I booked this trip for my parents and they absolutely loved it! They learned a lot about the fauna and flora of Chiang Mai, and the hiking is informative and not too exhausting. The guides (the dog guide also) are very responsible and helpful, and I will definitely try it next time and recommend to everyone who is here in Chiang Mai!

amazing! without any other tourists we could explore the jungle with a very knowlege guide who grew up in a jungle village there!! :)

Absolute must do in bangkok This is a moderate level guided walk through the jungle, so don't bring your sneakers or jandals. Also bring a bag with at least a litre of water per person. The day starts off with you getting picked up at your hotel in an air conditioned van. From there you travel about an hour out of bangkok to a small village in the jungle. There you are greated by your tour guides and start your day off into the bush. You will also be followed by two or three dogs for the day, they were very relaxed and enjoyed being out and about. Your guide will show you all off the herbs and edible plants there is to know around the area. The lunch was tasty and well worth it after the couple of.hours of walking beforehand. The waterfall was beautiful but can be a little bit difficult to get to for some people, well worth it though. Overall it was an amazing experiance and if you enjoy nature i would definitely recommend.

It was an amazing day! The guides were fantastic - friendly & knowledgeable. The food provided was delicious! The scenery was beautiful & tranquil. I would highly recommend this hike if you are looking for something challenging and less touristy (we saw no one else & only 10 people on our tour) It was a truly wonderful experience hiking in the mountains.

Chutikarn was an excellent and friendly guide who knew so much about the jungle and flora and fauna because he was local to the area. The hike was challenging at times but not difficult or strenuous. The other people on my tour were really nice and ee loved the waterfall that had a lot of water pressure! The other guide that accompanied us was also really helpful getting us through some of the trickier parts of the trail. We learned a lot about the herbs, fruit, and wildlife that thrives there. I highly recommend!

A great days hike off the beaten track immersed in the jungle. We were a small group and we had 4 very good guides (3 local). We were introduced to herbs and plants as we walked and had some challenges using bamboo bridges to cross/ climb to the waterfall which I enjoyed. Excellent communication pre trip and picked up on time which as a solo traveller I really appreciated 😊

Joined the tour as a solo traveller. Both Troy and Mr Yo took great care of our group. From letting us take frequent breaks during a challenging uphill climb to helping us down during the descent. Some parts of the hike are challenging but the guides are there to help. Don’t worry about having the take photos/vids as well; the guides consistently help to take photos/vids and will share them with you at the end of the tour. Really enjoyed the show-and-tell parts of the tour as well when Troy shared more about the forest. Lunch was delicious and filling. The 3 dogs that followed us throughout the trip were also adorable and happy to receive pets. 😂 Highly recommend this tour. Just make sure you bring good shoes, at least 1.5 litres of water, insect repellent and don’t be shy to take one of the hiking bamboo sticks the guides offer.

I highly recommend this activity to those who love sports and outdoor adventures! It was a completely new experience, hiking in a pristine forest with mountains, rivers, and even the opportunity to swim in a natural waterfall, haha! I got to know many plants and trees that I had never seen before and also got a great workout. I would like to specially thank the two instructors who were incredibly dedicated and responsible, prioritizing our safety to ensure we had a great time. Additionally, I absolutely loved the lunch box prepared for us，so delicious!

Troy was very punctual with the pick-up and drove safely and efficiently. During the hike, two of our group members struggled a bit because their shoes weren’t suitable for the terrain and slipped occasionally. Huge thanks to Troy and another guide for lending a helping hand from time to time. As a guide, Troy shared extensive jungle knowledge throughout the journey. What’s even more amazing is that, despite it being a Sunday, we surprisingly didn’t encounter any other groups 😂. It felt like a solo expedition, and we even had a rare encounter with Thailand’s 7th-ranked green snake during the Year of the Snake. It was an incredibly fulfilling and eventful day!

The best experience I had. I was looking for a truly jungle hiking, non touristic deep in the nature. That’s what I got. Beyond my expectations even. Troy is an excellent guide. Explained us all about plants, we smelled and tastes various herbs, he brought us through the jungle and you can see that he is an expert. Totally recommended for a non touristic authentic hiking in the real jungle. And the places were beautiful!

This was an amazing yet very challenging hike. If you want to experience remote jungle, with the site and sounds of pure nature, this is the hike for you . The waterfall trek and dip was the dessert of fairly challenging hike. Definitely recommended for the off the beaten path experience.

This is a truly pristine jungle trekking through unspoiled vast mountain area, I just immersed myself in lush greenery, birds chirping, creeks babbling… My most memorable and best experiences in Chiang Mai. Yes, it was a little bit struggling while trudging along some of the steep slopes , sometimes even invisible; however it was really rewarding when you finally embrace the amazing waterfalls. Troey is an incredible guide who was so passionate, caring and informative along the entire tour. I strongly recommend people with adventurous mind, who savor authentic nature to explore such a rare trekking route.

We had an amazing day with this tour! Our guides Troy and Jo were very nice and explained us many interesting facts about the local plants and animals. We could even taste several herbs that grow in the mountain. The hike itself was beautiful, we really went into the untouched jungle and were surrounded by large trees and even monkeys. At some points the path was quite steep and challenging but it was doable and no problem to take a break every now and then. Also, it was so fun to sometimes cross the river on bamboo bridges that Troy built himself! The lunch and waterfall shower were a delicious and refreshing break. After the hike, we were surprised with fruits and coffee! Thankyou for the nice day!!

A super nice trip through the jungle. Very pure, with very experienced guides with a lot of passion who like to tell more about the beautiful plants and animals that walk around there. As icing on the cake another beautiful waterfall where you can cool off. we really enjoyed!!🤩

Een mooie ervaring als je weg wil van de toeristische plekken en echt van wandelen houdt ! Trek goede wandelschoenen aan vanwege de hoogteverschillen en af en toe is het glad door bladeren. Prachtige tocht door de jungle en goede begeleiding. Troy is een goede gids !
