Samoeng is one of the greenest corners of Chiang Mai — a loop of forested mountains, strawberry farms and cool rivers that most visitors never see.
Explore the 450-million-year-old Mae Sap Cave, float down the crystal-clear Samoeng River through small jungle rapids, and spend time with elephants in the forest.
