From Luang Prabang: 2-Day Jungle Trek with Farmstay 2-Day Jungle Trek with Farmstay - Private

Embark on a 2-day trek from Luang Prabang and explore the jungle, visit local villages, and stay overnight at a remote farmstay. Enjoy authentic local food throughout while taking in the views.
Day 1: Forgotten Villages on the Mock Mhoo Trail

Begin your journey with a short transfer to the base of Tad Thong waterfall. Step onto a well-trodden path used daily by local villagers carrying fresh produce to the markets below. Follow this trail upward, tracing the water’s edge until you reach its source at Ban Houay Thong.

Nestled at the edge of a plateau, Ban Houay Thong is a unique community where Hmong and Khmu families live side-by-side. From here, traverse the mountainside toward Mock Mhoo, a "ghost village" abandoned over 40 years ago. Although the residents moved down to the valleys decades ago, the land tells their story to everyone who is willing to listen.

After lunch, leave the familiar behind and enter a long-forgotten trail cutting through dense protected rain forest. This leg of the journey takes you over a rugged mountain range where the canopy is thick and the biodiversity is rich. As you navigate the climb, the trees occasionally part to reveal hard-earned, breathtaking views of the valleys far below.

Finally, descend toward your destination for the day, a remote farmstay. Here, the evening is yours: unwind with a home-cooked Khmu dinner, relax in the mountain air, and watch the sun dip behind the peaks.

The farmstay offers basic amenities such as a western-style toilet and bucket shower and solar power for some lights (no phone charging possible). Sleep like the locals do: on a thin mattress under a mosquito net.

Day 2: Jungle Paths and Open Vistas on the Houy Nok Phit Trail

Wake up to the sounds of the mountains and a hearty breakfast before you begin your descent to Ban Houy Thao. Spend time here connecting with the local community, gaining insight into the daily life and rich culture of the Khmu people before stepping onto the trail.

The trek plunges you into a world of vibrant green, navigating a narrow path through dense, breathing rainforest. Just as the canopy feels endless, emerge onto the farmlands of Houy Nok Phit, greeted by sweeping open vistas. Here, high above the Nam Khan Valley, pause for a scenic picnic lunch, dining with one of the best views in the region.

The afternoon hike offers a gentle rhythm as the path widens. Traverse rolling hills and open terrain, enjoying an easy-to-navigate descent toward Ban Lak Sip. A short transfer brings you back to Luang Prabang, refreshed by the mountain air.
