Umphang Jungle Expedition

Your adventure starts in Umphang, where you board your rubber raft. The experienced captain will guide you on the Mae Klong stream, while you can enjoy the beautiful jungle scenery.

The first highlight is the Tee Lor Jor waterfalls. Over a distance of more than one kilometer the water drops from the cliff and trees, sometimes from such a height that rainbows can be seen. A magical place!

Then stop at the hotsprings, where you can take a nice, warm bath in the natural hot water. Continue to the Takhobi cataract, where some easy rapids excite your senses.

In the afternoon, around lunchtime, arrive at Thasai where you will have lunch.

After lunch, start trekking through the jungle to the Tee Lor Sue basecamp, at the wildlife sanctuary. On the way you may be lucky so to spot various animals that still live here: butterflies, monkeys, wild elephants, and many others.

Install yourself in your tent and make yourself comfortable. Your guide will prepare dinner. After dinner, relax by the campfire.
