Itinerary
Pick up from your hotel lobby and begin your spiritual journey along the historic Monk’s Trail, a forested trekking route on the slopes of Doi Suthep Mountain leading to Wat Pha Lat. This scenic path offers breathtaking views and an immersive nature experience.
Arrive at Wat Pha Lat, a hidden jungle temple nestled amidst lush greenery. This serene sanctuary, often referred to as a “jungle retreat,” features tranquil temple grounds, a cascading waterfall, and stunning city views.
Continue by air-conditioned vehicle to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, one of Northern Thailand’s most sacred temples, built in 1383. Perched 1,050 meters above sea level, this sacred site features a magnificent golden chedi enshrining holy relics of Lord Buddha. Enjoy panoramic views of Chiang Mai City and the Ping Valley from the summit of Suthep Mountain. Ascend the 306-step Naga staircase, or take a tram to the summit. Afterwards, return to your hotel.
