Welcome \ Travel \ Eco-Tourism




The far North of Thailand, especially the province of Chiang Mai, is renowned for its scenic natural beauty - an area filled with forested mountains, rivers, waterfalls and lush tropical jungles. Accordingly, it is also an area with innumerable opportunities for visitors to experience first hand a wide range of exciting and enjoyable eco-tourism activities. So much so that in 1999 Chiang Mai was aptly chosen as the official venue for the annual conference of the PATA Eco and Adventure Conference. The event focused on a variety of eco and adventure activities in the region, as well as similar activities available in other parts of Thailand. The most popular eco activities in Chiang Mai include rafting - either on bamboo rafts or inflatable dinghies, white water rafting, canoeing, kayaking, trekking - either by foot or by elephant, mountain biking, climbing, hiking and bird watching, to name but a few.
