Growing
quickly in popularity is the wide range of adventure
and nature tours now available in Thailand.
These include trekking in the mountains and jungles
of northern and western Thailand, especially in the
border regions which still boast pristine tropical forests,
spectacular waterfalls and rivers. Indeed, rafting is
frequently featured as part of these treks.
Participants also usually have the opportunity to stay
overnight in small villages where they can experience
the lifestyles of Thailand's hilltribe and nomadic people.
Also popular are mountain bikes tours.
Most are set in the mountains of the North, and include
guides and, on certain tours, back-up vehicles carrying
food and overnight equipment. Bikes are also widely
available in major tourists destinations, where they
can be rented at extremely reasonable rates on a daily
basis.
Cliff climbing is another environment-friendly activity
with a growing number of participants. The most popular
area for climbing is the southern province of Phang
Nga, where towering limestone cliffs provide the perfect
challenge. |
