Hidden against the flanks of a lush jungle mountain, the 700-year-old temple of Wat Luang Khun Win waits for you to discover it. Just when you think you have passed any signs of settlement, the Chiang Mai temple emerges, its dragon-coils and golden spires seeming to grow straight from the forest floor.
This beautiful temple is so remote and difficult to reach that it remains largely undiscovered by tourists. This Chiang Mai temple’s remoteness allowed it to be preserved in its original form, when most other ancient temples were destroyed through attempts to conquer the Lanna Kingdom and have since been rebuilt.
Your jungle trekking adventure begins in a quaint Karen Hill village nestled in a valley. In the rain and cool seasons, clouds descend, the trees become immersed in stillness, and only the sounds of cicadas and dripping water can be heard in the glowing fog. On warm days light plays through the leaves joyfully.
After exploring the peaceful jungle temple grounds, enjoy a relaxing picnic lunch at a nearby waterfall. Take a refreshing dip in the water or simply enjoy the idyllic lush jungle surroundings.
