MAE HONG SON & MAE SARIANG

MAE HONG SON was the original backpackers’ mountain destination, before being usurped by Pai. The city, and province of the same name, is full of mountain beauty and mountain folks from either side of the border.
A number of roads can be combined for the so-called Mae Hong Son loop from Chiang Mai. Dropping down a little further towards Mae Sot is the town of Mae Sariang and Salawin National Park.
