Doi Luang
Chiang Dao is a limestone mountain in the Chiang Dao
Wildlife Reserve area, Amphoe Chiang Dao. This
cone-shaped mountain is 2,195 metres from sea level,
which makes it the third highest mountain in Thailand
after Doi Inthanon and Doi Pha Hom Pok.
Narrow plains on top of the mountain overlook
spectacular views that include a sea of fog on the
Amphoe Chiang Dao side, Doi Sam Phi Nong, the
Chiang Dao mountain range, and the far end of Doi
Inthanon. The peak is cool and windy. It is
full of rare highland flowers, birds, and butterflies.
Visiting Doi Chiang Dao needs an approval
letter from the Director of Wildlife Reserve Division,
Royal Forest Department. Travel must be arranged at
least 2 weeks in advance. Contact tel. 0 2561 2947 for
more information.
How to get
there: The peak is accessible on foot. At
Chiang Dao cave, guides, porters, and chartered
transfers to the starting point of the trail are
available. Rented local truck costs around 900
baht and, a porter is 300 baht per person. There
are no tourist facilities on Chiang Dao Mountain.
Visitors must bring their own sleeping bags, food, and
water.
Descending the mountain
is possible on the trail near Ban Tham, which
is located near Chiang Dao cave. The trail is rather
steep; nevertheless, it could shorten the walking
distance upon descending. It is quite difficult to climb
up.
