Cycle challenge
Challenge level
Discover the rolling emerald tea fi elds, serene villages and majestic temples of Northern Thailand on our tropical bike ride for heart charities.
Everyone knows about the paradise beaches of southern Thailand but the peace of the mountains is something else entirely. We’ll tackle mighty climbs through the countryside, catch our breath in the natural swimming pools of a waterfall and meet the amazing Lahu Hill Tribe nestled amidst tea plantations.
We’ll cycle from the bustling city of Chiang Mai to the White Temple of Chiang Rai. This will treat us to extraordinary vistas over lush farms and valleys, enabling us to gain an enthralling insight into the rich history and culture of rural Thailand. After this, we’ll soothe our feet in hot springs hidden in a forest.
Prepare to fall in love with the delicious Thai cuisine, keep your eyes peeled for exotic wildlife and make a group of treasured new friends. And the best part is, it’s all for the heart charity or cardiac ward of your choice.
