February 28, 2024,Wat Pra That Doi Suthep – Wat Pha Lat Runde von บ้านดง

The paths are sometimes difficult (steep, slippery, rocky) or difficult to find. This is not an easy tour.

January 25, 2025,Wat Pha Lat – Sai Yoi waterfall Runde von สุเทพ

A very nice hike that goes through the jungle. (I think you actually have to notify some authority for parts of the route) I would say at least the part between the waterfalls was very difficult. The rest was easy though.

November 13, 2024,Wat Pha Lat Runde mit Wasserfall

The tour is absolutely beautiful, but very demanding in many places and definitely not of medium difficulty. The jungle is incredibly beautiful and also strenuous to hike. But the great impressions are worth it.
