“BIKE 7X” 3-Hour Mae Ngat Valley rice field cycling, from Chiang Mai

In just a short one-hour drive north from our current location lies the breathtaking Mae Ngat valley, a true natural gem. This lush valley is home to local farmers who are blessed with not just one, but two water sources, enabling them to cultivate fields that stretch out as far as the eye can see. To the east, a blue mountain range frames this picturesque landscape, providing a stunning backdrop to the valley.

Our journey begins at the west side of the valley, at the Ban Den Temple city, which offers an excellent vantage point to take in the panoramic views of the valley below. As we set out on our adventure, we will traverse small country roads and tractor lanes that wind their way through the expansive fields, affording us the opportunity to interact with the friendly locals who call this valley home. We will pass by bustling produce markets and quaint villages, all of which add to the charm of the journey.

Our final destination is a Mango plantation Restaurant, where we will indulge in a well-deserved lunch and celebrate the joy of life. This picturesque venue serves as the perfect place to relax and unwind after an exhilarating ride through the Mae Ngat valley. With its stunning natural beauty and warm, friendly locals, this experience promises to be a journey that we will never forget.
