We start the hill-tribe trip from The Hiker office, first heading to the ancient Stupa of That Poum Pouk located on top of a high hill. You will have an opportunity to take nice pictures of the panoramic landscape. Then we continue to cycle up rough mountainous paths for a few hours before reaching the village on a hilltop. We will visit the hill-tribe families and interact with the children playing around. We will have a picnic lunch of cultural local food before cycling a decent back enjoying the stunning scenery.
