A two hour nature trail hike with a local guide takes in rice terraces and flower gardens, followed by a tribe market, traditional coffee, and a bowl of khao soi to finish. 📋 Key Details Duration: About 10 hours Group size: From 1 person, up to 15 Meeting point: Hotel pickup in Chiang Mai city Fitness: Easy walking pace; no hiking experience needed Start time: 04:00 hotel pickup 🌅 What to Expect Pickup is at 04:00 for the drive up to Doi Inthanon while the city is still asleep. From over 2,000 metres you watch sunrise break over the surrounding peaks, well away from the crowds that arrive later in the morning. A two hour nature trail hike follows, with a local guide sharing knowledge of the jungle, past rice plantations and the Royal Project's flower gardens grown for local hill tribes. Later in the morning you visit a tribe market and try coffee produced locally in the traditional way, before finishing with khao soi, a Chiang Mai speciality noodle dish, at a local restaurant. The return transfer then brings you back toward the city after a full morning outdoors. 📍 Location Doi Inthanon is Thailand's highest mountain, rising well above 2,000 metres, with viewpoints that catch sunrise long before it reaches the valleys below. The nature trail winds through forest and farmland cultivated by local hill communities. The tribe market and restaurant stops sit closer to the base of the mountain, giving a taste of local culture and food to round off the morning before you leave the park. ✅ Prerequisites There is no strict minimum age, though the very early start and a two hour hike suit older children and adults best. Warm layers are recommended for the cold morning air at altitude. Sport shoes and insect repellent are worth packing for the jungle trail. The walking pace is rated easy, so everyday fitness is enough for most guests. 💛 Why Choose Us Watching sunrise from Doi Inthanon before the crowds arrive is a different experience from a standard daytime visit, and the local guide brings real knowledge of the trail and the surrounding hill tribe culture. Finishing with a proper khao soi lunch rounds off the morning with a taste of the region, so the day covers viewpoint, trail, market, and food in one clear plan. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel pickup and return in Chiang Mai city centre Local guide for the nature trail hike Tribe market visit and traditional coffee tasting Khao soi lunch at a local restaurant ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point beyond the included hotel pickup and return Personal expenses and souvenirs Travel insurance Tips (optional) ### Kit list Warm layers for the cold pre-dawn temperatures Sport shoes with good grip Insect repellent Water bottle Camera for sunrise photos ## FAQs ### How early is the pickup? Pickup is at 04:00, so the trip starts well before sunrise in order to reach Doi Inthanon in good time for the view from altitude. Get an early night beforehand, and set an alarm with plenty of buffer so you are ready in reception on time for departure. ### Is there a minimum age? There is no strict minimum age, but the very early start and a two hour hike suit older children and adults best. If you are considering booking with young children, think about whether they can manage a pre-dawn start and a couple of hours of walking. ### How fit do I need to be? The hike is rated easy with a gentle pace over about two hours, so a reasonable level of everyday fitness is enough. The main challenge for most guests is the early start rather than the walking itself, so a good night's sleep beforehand helps. ### Will it be cold? Yes, mornings at altitude on Doi Inthanon are noticeably cold before sunrise, even though Chiang Mai city stays warm. Warm layers are strongly recommended. Temperatures rise quickly once the sun is up, so a layer you can remove comfortably is useful. ### What should I bring? Warm layers for the cold pre-dawn start are essential, along with sport shoes with good grip and insect repellent for the jungle trail. A camera for sunrise photos and a water bottle are also worth packing to keep you comfortable through the two hour hike. ### Where do we meet? Pickup is from your hotel in Chiang Mai city centre at 04:00, so you do not need to arrange your own transport up the mountain in the dark. Share your hotel name after booking and be ready in reception at the confirmed time so the group can depart promptly. ### How long is the trip? Plan for about 10 hours door to door, covering the early drive, sunrise viewing, the two hour hike, the tribe market, and khao soi lunch before the return to Chiang Mai. Timings can vary slightly with traffic and group pace on the trail. ### Is khao soi included? Yes, a khao soi lunch at a local restaurant is included at the end of the trip, alongside coffee produced by a local tribal community earlier in the morning. Let the operator know of any dietary requirements when booking so the restaurant stop can be arranged around them. ### What happens in bad weather? This is an outdoor mountain trip, so cloud cover can affect the sunrise view and rain can affect the trail. Light rain is often workable; the team will advise on any changes for safety. Pack a light waterproof layer just in case the forecast changes overnight. ### Can I book as a solo traveller? Yes, there is no minimum group size for this trip, so solo travellers are welcome to book without needing a companion first. Groups can run up to 15 people, so you may share the trip with other travellers on the same early departure. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/1b0028a5-dcbf-4166-9b0f-4f1f803250a5-1.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
