Chiang Mai: Doi Inthanon Park with Kew Mae Pan Hike Day Trip

About This Experience

Kew Mae Pan is the more obvious choice when you want a sustained mountain walk with a chance of open ridge views. The operator lists around two hours on the trail within an eleven-hour day. Forest sections and changing gradients make it a different outing from a summit photo stop or a brief boardwalk stroll.

The tour also visits the summit area, royal pagodas and Wachirathan Waterfall, with highland village and market stops described by the operator. Views depend on clouds and weather: a scheduled ridge walk is not a guarantee of a clear panorama.

Check the date before comparing prices. The listing limits this trail to November through May. The Economy Option excludes admissions, while the Full Package includes the park and pagodas. Lunch and the English-speaking guide are part of the listed core package.
