Highlights

Live the dream of becoming an explorer and discover a
remote cave that can only be visited with our guides on
this tour

Discover a remote valley, hidden from the extravagencies
of Vang Vieng

This one day of trekking and caving take us up and over a mountain ridge to remote caves and hidden valleys that are rarely visited by outsiders. The beauty of these hidden sights and unexplored areas must be seen to be believed.

What Will You Do

We depart from Vang Vieng and head north, where we start our adventure. We begin by climbing the steep limestone mountains, following the path up to some spectacular panoramic views! Near the top of the ridge is the Tham Hok Cave, which is relatively unexplored and only accessible on a hidden path. We’ll spend some time exploring this uncharted cave and its collection of impressive stalactites and stalagmites. Once we reach the ridge we will take in the view before beginning the descent down the far side of the mountain to a hidden valley! Here there is time for a swim before we return to Vang Vieng.

Approximately: 6 hours trekking

What to expect:

This is a full day experience with some challenging trekking up and down some steep muddy slopes. You will need to have a high level of fitness

Our water policy

Help us to become 100% single use plastic free company!

We try to avoid plastic as much as possible, that is why we encourage you to bring your own refillable bottle.
We have water refillable station at our office where you can fill up your bottle. If you don’t have one we sell the 0,75 L Green Discovery aluminium bottles at our sales office. At the moment we will still need to use plastic bottles in some of our tours but we hope to reduce it as much as possible. Together with The Green Discovery Sustainability Fund we are working on installing water filters in all the villages we are visiting and we hope in the future we will not need to use plastic bottles anymore.
