Pong Ngen, a small village in a big forest - Chiang Mai

Pong Ngen, a small village in a big forest - Chiang Mai ⛰️ It is a village located next to the Mae Taeng River. There is no electricity. No mobile phone signal, no road for cars to enter. And if you want to go, there are only two routes: 🏃🏻♀️Walk for about 4 kilometers, the road is quite steep, suitable for hikers and locals. 🛶 Rafting for about 8 kilometers, takes 2 hours, slow or fast depending on the water level. Like us, we had to choose rafting anyway. Start at the entrance to Sob Kai village, drive for another 40 minutes. I recommend bringing sun protection and dust protection because the red road is very dusty. 🛻 Until you reach the entrance to the rafting point, you can start living as a victim. Because along the way, there are strong water currents, rocks, sharp curves, the water really hits the raft. This trip, I applaud all my friends on this trip. 55555 🛶 You have to use both strength and awareness to look at the hands of the villagers who control the front. The atmosphere along the way is good, the sun is strong but the water is very cold. ⛅️ If you have snacks and chrysanthemum tea with bubbles, you can sit and enjoy it. This time, we got a homestay at Phi Preecha's house, who took good care of us. The food is delicious, the corner of the house is nice, the bedroom and bathroom are clean. 🏡 After arriving at the village, we rested and let Joy play in the water, walked around the village, and ended with having dinner together and sitting around the campfire. I secretly regretted that we didn't get a barbecue on this trip. 🥹 At night, the weather is quite cold. The stars are clear and there are a lot. If you don't get drunk and fall asleep first, you can see them. 🌟 In the morning, the sound of hammering wood to make a raft will be loud at every point because people will start to leave the village. As for us, we returned in the morning at 10 am. It's not that we were afraid that the raft would get stuck to other people. In fact, we woke up late. 😂 We rowed the raft out as usual and then went to change clothes at Sob Kai Village, the starting point yesterday. The whole story is about a chill trip that we joined with strangers with the slogan "Take care of each other like friends = Take care of yourself 🙌🏻" Nice to meet you 💚 #KeepgoingxNorth #PongNgaen #PongNgaenReview #ChiangMaiReview #ChiangMaiAccommodation #Travel plan giveaway
