6.22 km XC Mountain Biking from Sticky Waterfall

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 13 reviews · 5 hours · from $65

Start with a climb at Bua Thong Sticky Waterfalls, then ride 22 km of red-dirt and clay trails toward Mae Kuang Lake. You’ll cross near Mae Kuang Suspension Bridge, visit a cave, stop at viewpoints, swim, and eat lunch beside the reservoir. English-speaking guides, safety gear, hydration packs, and a support vehicle are included.

“Combiner la visite de ces très rigolos "sticky waterfalls" très recherchés par les thaïlandais avec un tour en VTT est géniale. Les guides étaient super et s'adaptaient à tous les participants. Attention toutefois, il faut un certain niveau de vélo, ça monte et ça descend sec parfois. Prévoir plutôt 6-7 heures que 5 (il faut rajouter le temps de transport pour accéder au site, 1h30 à 2h aller-retour).”
