Ban Nam Yang Experience (2 days)

Day 1: Luang Namtha- Ban Nammat- Ban Namyang

We depart from the Greendiscovery office to Ban Nammat (Akha village) where our trek starts. After picking up the local guide who leads the trek we walk along walking rice paddies and garden fields, before we head up into the forest of the Nam Ha NPA. The way leads us downhill, and during a few stops so you will learn about flora and fauna from our guides. A delicious picnic lunch will be served on the way. After lunch we keep walking to experience the evergreen forest and enjoy the mountainous scenic view. We cross a stream sometimes before we reach the village where we can have a bath in the stream to refresh. Our group will arrive the village which is located on a hilltop in the late afternoon. The local Akha people will be our hosts for food and overnight, and also an Akha massage can be arranged by the village youth. This is a good chance to get into interaction with the locals.

After breakfast we meet the children on the way to school before saying goodbye to the villagers. Today we will discover more of the Nam Ha conserved area. The trail is a small path through the jungle (primary forest) with a moderate level trek; lunch will be served whenever you feel hungry. You can hear the birds singing and your guide gives you useful information along the way.
