North Thailand By Road Bike

North Thailand is a captivating arena for road cyclists, with smooth roads curling up jungle-clad mountains and stretching across valleys of endless rice paddies. On this 10-day tour, we take on some of the north’s most scenic cycling routes, challenge ourselves with iconic climbs, savour breathtaking views, enjoy local cuisine, and unwind in cosy accommodations

We meet in the provincial capital of Chiang Rai, where we kick off with a warm-up ride to the must-see White Temple. Next, we venture into the highlands, making our way to the small town of Tha Thon. From there, we cross the hills of Mae Salong before traversing vast plains to reach the unique Golden Triangle, where Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos converge at the Mekong River. After some gentle rides southward, we face the epic ascent to Phu Chi Fah, revealing some of the north’s most spectacular views, relatively unknown to tourists. We then enjoy a thrilling downhill back to the plains, spending a night in the lakeside city of Phayao. Finally, we hop valley-to-valley to Chiang Mai Province, where we visit the unique “sticky” waterfall, before concluding with a ride on the classic Samoeng Loop. The tour ends in Chiang Mai City.
