This section was going to be called walking, but it was pointed out that some of the walks available locally were a little more demanding than a gentle stroll, although gentle strolls are possible too.A couple of the routes available are..
Nature Trail - A one and a half hour path up the side of the mountain, through thick forest/ jungle then down to the Chiang Dao Caves. It is very well marked and not too demanding.

Muang Khong Road - This route follows a paved road, but there is very little traffic and the untouched forest is breathtaking. You should be able to get past the National Park checkpoint with a smile, and up the very steep incline immediately after. One for the masochists!
