This trail is really nice and technical with some super steep parts and rock gardens/loose stones, bloody amazing backdrop though and really long. Make sure your fitness is up as this one is tough on the hands (gets super slippery in wet but tons of fun)

      Rough 1 km elevation vertical ascent/descent. Hot with minimal shade at the bottom, but forested on the top. Passes from dipterocarp to pine and then evergreen forest, taking you through all the major ecological zones of Doi Suthep. The dipterocarp forest has smaller trees that often get burnt during the dry season.

      There are deep eroded ruts everywhere. Lots of bypasses, i.e. double lanes. You'll be climbing up with your hands at some of the steepest sections. Trekking poles recommended.

      There are several side trails, mostly going towards the east.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
