Day 1 Luang Namtha to Jungle banana Shelter campsite

Meet the company at 9:00 am we meet at the P Adventures office and take a minivan ride to the start of the trail. On route we stop off briefly at the local Laos market for supplies. 

From the start of the hike we find ourselves immediately immersed in lush tropical forest, as the trail leads us deeper into the jungle. We continue hiking for 2-3 hours over hills and valleys shaded by the magnificent jungle canopy.

 At lunchtime we stop at a perfect spot in the jungle for a well-earned Lao picnic, expertly prepared by our guides using the supplies and resources of the surrounding environment.​ We continue on the trail through an impressive primary forest populated with mighty mahogany trees, bamboo groves and wild banana plants. 

After finding a suitable campsite our guides will teach you how to construct a banana shelter for the night, and how to select and find the right building materials from the forest.

Day 2 Jungle Banana shelter to Luang Namtha P Adventures office 

Wake up in the heart of the jungle to gentle birdsong and a tasty breakfast laid out by our ever-attentive guides. We start walking on the trail at around 10:00 am with a pleasant hike that follows the Nam Ha river, lined with giant trees on imposing cliffs. 

We continue on through dense tropical forests revealing almost hidden tribal villages, offering the chance to meet Khmu and Lantan people.

Lunch time – jungle style! Learn to prepare your own food using the resources of the jungle. Sharpen up your jungle culinary techniques as our guides teach you how to prepare and cook lunch using bamboo cane and a lesson in how to make your own bamboo cutlery! 

​Back on the trail we continue our hike through ancient forests filled with life. Before long we begin a steady descent on a hillside with jaw-dropping views across the valleys of the Namha NPA. Around 4-5.00pm, we reach the timeless Namlu village of the Khmu tribe, and the end of the trek. Explore the village and meet the locals before a ride back to the P Adventures office.
