Day 1 Luang Namtha - Jungle camp
At 9:00 AM we meet at the P Adventure Laos office and take a minivan ride to the start of the trail near Tha Sae village. On the way 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 from the sun by the magnificent jungle canopy.
At lunch time we stop at a perfect spot in the jungle for a well-earned Lao picnic, expertly prepared by our guides using the resources of the surrounding environment. We continue on the trail through a hugely impressive primary forest populated with mighty mahogany trees, bamboo groves and wild banana plants.
After arriving at our campsite we can swim in the river and learn how to cook local foods. Relax, share some food and drinks by the campfire, and later fall asleep in our bamboo lodge to the sounds of the jungle.
Day 2 Jungle camp - Authentic village experience
Wake up in the heart of the jungle to gentle birdsong and a tasty breakfast laid on by our ever-attentive guides. We start walking on the trail at around 9:00 am with a rewarding hike over densely forested hills and across lush valleys. Lunch time – jungle style! Learn from our guides how to find and prepare your own food using the jungle resources.
Watch, learn, and get involved cooking your lunch using authentic jungle techniques. 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 Nam Ha NPA. Around 4:00 pm, we reach the picturesque and timeless Na Lan village of the Khmu tribe.
Meet the locals and learn about their unique way of life. Here there is another opportunity to take a refreshing dip in the cool river water. A traditional Lao dinner will be served by your Khmu family homestay. After dinner enjoy a traditional Khmu dance performance, which you can also get involved in!
Day 3 Authentic village - Luang Namtha
Wake up the sounds of the jungle and daily village life with a hot drink and a tasty Lao breakfast. At 9:00am we set off on the river and begin paddling downriver to tackle another bunch of exciting rapids and turns on the river. On the way we stop off to briefly visit a couple of charming minority villages, Ban Nalan Tai of the Khmu tribe and Nam Koy of the Lantan tribe.
Several thrilling rapids later we come upon a picturesque riverside location to enjoy a tranquil jungle picnic.
This is a great chance to soak up the scenery or... start a water-fight Back on the river the current quickens and the river alternates exciting rapids with stretches of calm waters and the chance to appreciate the enchanting sounds of wildlife in the air.
Around 3:00 pm we reach Houay Leuat village where we end our exhilarating kayaking adventure. At this point, you should change into warm clothes for the minivan ride back to the P Adventure Laos office.
