About Hiking At Doi Inthanon In Chiang Mai

Fringed with majestic mountains, alluring valleys, hill-tribe villages, and terraced rice fields along the route of about 47 km, Doi Inthanon National Park in Chiang Mai is one of the best places to indulge in tranquility, adventure, and natural beauty simultaneously. Housing the Thailand’s tallest mountain- Doi Inthanon and home to about 400 bird species, Asiatic black bear, flying squirrels, Assamese macaque, barking deer, and more, this national park is one of the best retreats to immerse in. Being the highest point in Thailand and having a proximity to Chiang Mai, it draws a huge flock of tourists from all across the globe.

Replete with a bevy of nature trails, such as Ang-Ga Luang, Kew Mae Pan, Baan Mae Klang Luang, and Mae Klang Waterfall, hiking at Doi Inthanon National Park is meant to introduce with natural beauty at its best. If you want to go slow, then hiking to Mae Klang Waterfall, which is blessed with numerous nature exhibits, can be a good start. While, walking through Kew Mae Pan trail offers you some of the mesmerizing views of the meadows.

History of Doi Inthanon National Park

Formerly known as Doi Luang or Doi Ang Ka, i.e. ‘a big mountain’, by the hill tribes, it is still one of the prominent peaks in the region. The big mountain, Doi Inthanon, in the park derives its name from the last emperor of Chiang Mai- Inthawichayananon, who was famed for his love of nature. While, the national park around the mountain was established much later in the year 1972.

Weather in Doi Inthanon National Park

The summit of Doi Inthanon is one of the coldest regions in Thailand. Hence, summer season can be the best time to hike to Doi Inthanon National Park.

Experiencing a temperature range of 4 to 10 degree celsius, the weather in Doi Inthanon National Park during the winter season often drops to freezing points, yet it can be another good time to stroll through its spectacular landscapes replete with misty mountains. However, it is recommended to carry a jacket and wear comfortable walking shoes while on this adventurous trip. Although, the climate in the park is moderate during the monsoon season, dark clouds often obscure the views, making it difficult to visit Doi Inthanon National Park at this time of the year.

Nearby Attractions of Doi Inthanon National Park

Decked with magnificent mountains and natural beauty, Doi Inthanon National Park is surrounded by a few other attractions that are certainly going to catch your eyeballs.

Pha Chor Canyon: Drawing the attention of some people who came to partake in Doi Inthanon National Park hiking, Pha Chor Canyon is an amazing place to spend some time around. Hike a few stairs down the canyon if you are not in a hurry to go back to your stay, and let its majestic cliffs and rock formations add a few more beautiful moments to your journey.

Chiang Mai Grand Canyon: This man-made canyon, later turned into a water park, is quite a good place to cherish some relaxing moments, and indulge in serenity.

Mailkirthikak's 7 days trip to Chiang Mai

I booked my trip through Ananta Tours and as usual it was an awesome experience at Thailand. Ananta Tours team member Aditya was very cooperative in planning my trip. He helped me whenever I required. Thank you Ananta Tours team and I am looking forward for further trips with Ananta Tours

Mailkirthikak Chennai

Supriti's 6 days trip to Chiang Mai

I recently had the pleasure of booking a trip to Krabi and Phuket through Travel Triangle, and I must say the experience was outstanding, largely thanks to Parul Singh (Navigato). From the initial stages of booking the flights, hotel accommodations, and private transfers, Parul handled everything with great care and professionalism. She made sure to share all the necessary information well in advance, which made the trip hassle-free. Her proactive follow-ups, ensuring there were no issues and checking in regularly, were truly impressive. Even during the trip, she was readily available, making sure we had everything we needed. Parul’s commitment to making the experience smooth and enjoyable made all the difference, and I’m grateful for her excellent service. I highly recommend her and Travel Triangle to anyone looking for a seamless and worry-free travel experience.

Richa's 2 days trip to Chiang Mai

Our International trip to Thailand was a really amazing travelling experience. I would really thank Aditya, from Ananta Tours, he has given us the best possible package for the trip, and not just that, he had planned everything very well and managed the whole trip perfectly where we didn't have any problem. As I was a person going on a trip outside my country for the first time, I was tense and doubtful about all the activities and experiences we were going to have, but Prajon and Ananta Tours Team always answered my questions with patience regarding where to go and what to do, he had all arranged it so nicely that I don't have words to explain.

Richa Delhi

B's 6 days trip to Chiang Mai

I went on a trip to Thailand with Ananta Tours and experience was very smooth. Everyone was so cooperative and polite and handled the whole trip efficiently and smoothly. It was my first international trip and i was afraid to choose Ananta Tours but now i can say that Mr. Prajon was my travel manager and he was very professional. Will definitely reach out to them for future trips.

Vish's 8 days trip to Chiang Mai

I went to Phuket and Krabi for 5 days. Aditya was my travel adviser, he was very responsive and knowledgeable. The trip was very customizable according to my preferences. Travel agent could have been better by giving recommendations, since it's new country to visit. Sayan was very much helpful throughout the Thailand trip. Really appreciate his work. I would love to recommend Ananta Tours to my friends.
