Mae Khampong and zipling

Mae Khampong and zipling

This eco village, and the pristine Mae Takhrai National Park in which it is nestled, is best seen from the tree tops which is why most the visitors are part of the Flight of the Gibbon experience. This is the original zip line in Chiang Mai and the most professionally run, a thrilling adventure 50m above ground on more than 25 lines. It takes several hours to negotiate the sky bridges, abseiling obstacles and canopy. You might even spott gibbons in the wild. Mae Khampong, where it's based, is a pretty little village perched besides a mountain stream at altitude. It's a refreshing escape from the tourist trail. Open: daily. Tours run from 7am throughout the day, costing 3,300 baht. Tel: 053 010 660, email:
