We depart from Green Discovery Laos. We first cycle toward south of Luang Prabang, on the way to Xayabouly. It takes around 2 hours on paved road and 1 hour on dirt road. We then make a stop for lunch.
We continue our off road ride. The ride will be gradually up hill through a forest and go deeper to a jungle. Time for a rest nearby a waterfall! Afterward, we cycle through beautiful landscape before arriving to Ban Huaypheng (Khmu hill tribe) for the night. We will have a chance to attend a baci ceremony with the villagers.
Approximately: 5 hours cycling
After breakfast, we follow the path in the valley of the Khmu village. A nice walk leads us through the rice field and scenic landscape. We see a hug pond, a special spot for local people around the area, why?
In the dry season, the land is covered by trees that are called second forest and special and high limestone mountain. In the wet season, no one knows where the water comes from to flood the whole area. The high limestone mountain also disappears in the water. In the dry season we take a walk and in the wet season we take a bamboo raft.
We break for lunch and then continue the trek through the second forest to Hmong Camp in the valley before arriving to Ban Long Lao. From here, we return to Luang Prabang.
Approximately: 1 hour transfer/ 5 hours kayaking
