Mae Hong Son trekking and activities

Mae Hong Son is a great place for daytrips in the region and provides great opportunities for adventures and trekking tours; on its twisting roads, sweeping rivers and in the mountainous forested region, passing through villages with Burmese/Shan style temples. Waterfalls, not only pleasing to the eye, but also fill small pools which are a perfect treat at the end of long treks through the forests.

The region is also well known for its multitude of caves: archaeologists have discovered some 67 in the province, many still containing prehistoric relics. The 400 meter long cave at Tham Lod, about 80km to the northwest of Mae Hong Son, near Soppong, is just one of these fine caves inviting for caving trips.

Mae Hong Son: When to visit

The city is best visited between November and March when the town is at its most beautiful. Mae Hong Son is sheltered by several mountains, keeping it cooler during the summer months and allowing the temperature to drop to only 2ºC during January. The mountains have long been home to various migrant hilltribes.
