Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We visited the Mae Wang river area with some friends and discovered a unique canyon area about 45 minutes driving south of Chiang Mai. The Mae Wang river canyon is located outside of the vilage of Mae Wang within the park area itself and is a haven for swimmers and rafting enthusiasts. there are many restaurants along the road side and each one has steep trails or stairways that lead down to picturesque spots along the river. Restaurants also use ingenious cable systems to deliver food and beverages down to the visitors that bath in the river canyon below. Long rafts created from large sections of Bamboo fastened together are one of the main attractions here. You can hire a boat to take you down the narrow rapids of the river dodging the boulders or you can try it yourself.
An Elephant camp is also located nearby and you can take rides up through the mountain jungels. Fantastic place and easily accessible from Chiang Mai.

Wonderful scenic views, long winding roads, cold with increasing altitude, biting midges at summit and many leeches at paths. Mist settled in at height until midday but different high altitude bird species such as mountain imperial pigeons, long tailed sibia, etc. Reasonable camping facilities and toilets at road end/summit but cold nights.

The way to the park is really tough, but it is worth to make this trip ! Even my senior age mum didn't feel that tired to reach the top of the place!

About five hours driving from Bangkok.There are bungalows at the headquarter site. The bungalows are clean, have private batherooms in some rooms.The bungalow back terrace faces a small stream where you can relax and sip cold drinks while watch for a Crested Kingfisher to fly past. The park headquarter has large open area and big trees -a good site for bird watching. The staff are friendly. There is a displaying board at the office on animals and plants found in the Park There is a small Thai restuarant on site with good food, but you may want to pre-order your meals. You can drive up to Chong Yen Viewpoint about 25+ Km. The view is spectacular and there's a chance to see some rare Hornbills.
There are small biting flies that may cause problems. Long sleeved shirt, long trousers, and shoes are strongly recommened.

Outstanding day trip. Make sure you go out the back exit. You will get lost and it is excellent. Remember, you always have the smartphone. If it doesn't get a signal. Just stop and ask anyone. Chiang Mai. U will find your way.
