Biking in Chomphet District

This outdoor activity combines cycling, trekking and boating in the rural area along the Mekong. We will experience local daily life and their unique culture; interact with friendly local people of different ethnic minorities and so much more…

Day 1: Luang Prabang - Ban Na Kham - Ban Houay Tan - Ban Chan Neu - Ban Peaw
We depart from Green Discovery Laos office in downtown Luang Prabang. We first cycle down hill to the boat docking station to cross the Mekong River by boat to the other side of Luang Prabang called Ban Xieng Man village. We then cycle to Ban Na Kham known for growing sugarcane and cooking sticky rice in bamboo stick. There is time to have a look around and maybe sample this snack. We continue to Ban Houay Tan (Khmu village). Lunch is prepared by our local cook.

After lunch, we cycle to the surrounding area of Ban Chan Neu to see how pottery is made and head to Ban Peaw for the night.

Approximately: 5 hours cycling

Day 2: Ban Peaw - Ban Na - Ban Som Sisomphou – Ban Mok Prai – Ban Phou Luang TaiBan Som Sisomphou
After breakfast prepared by local family, we cycle through rice paddy field to Ban Na and stop for lunch at Ban Somsisomphou where we walk over to a spot something that defies youth. Believe it or not, it is a superannuated and aged mango tree that is over 500 years old! After feeling young again, we transform from biking to trekking. Surpassing some rice fields, we then cross a stream. Trekking about 2 ½ hours up hill through Ban Mok Prai (Hmong village), we finally arrive to Ban Phou Luang Tai (Hmong village) where we will stay over night in the eco-lodge of SNV.

Approximately: 4 hours cycling/ 2 ½ hours trekking

Day 3: Ban Phou Luang Tai – Ban Houay Pong – Ban Muang Kham - Luang Prabang
Following breakfast, we start our last day trek that passes the forest to Ban Houay Pong (Khmu village) to relax and have lunch at the hall sustenance by SNV. We then continue to Muang Kham village that produces riverweed (only in the dry season). From here, we take a 20 minutes boat ride back to Luang Prabang.

Approximately: 3 hours trekking/ 20 minutes boating

Note: In the wet season, the road can be very muddy.Muang Kham Village
