However, the tough hike is rewarded by beautiful views when at the top, and the waterfall on the second day is just amazing (you can jump from the top of you feel like it, it’s awesome).
The only downside to this trek for me was that on the first day we were done around 4pm and then our guides just left us alone until dinner time around 8 so we didn’t really know what to do, was hoping for more interaction with the guides, or at least learn more about the jungle.
The nightly accommodations were very basic but did not expect any different going in.

Overall, I will mostly remember an amazing, incredibly challenging trek which has been a highlight of my visit to Chiang Mai.
